It’s with a heavy heart we share retired K9 Baden passed away Sunday, June 7. K9 Baden served Woodbury from 2013-2019 with Public Safety Director and Police Chief Jason Posel.

K9 Baden helped ensure his handler and all his partners went home safely after each shift. His nose, training, speed and agility allowed him the ability to serve our community in ways human officers can’t.

One of Baden’s notable moments was helping his partners locate an individual who had taken three young children. It was a very hot day, multiple K9s were working a large field, desperately trying to find and rescue the children. Hours into the search, K9 Baden began showing signs of odor recognition of the suspect. K9 Baden pulled his officer partners directly to the suspect who was hidden in tall thick grass, with the small children who were beginning to overheat. K9 Baden’s keen sense of smell, his training, and his dedication led to the successful rescue of these children.

Along with his patrol work and being on the SWAT team, K9 Baden connected with thousands of kids and adults through numerous public events. In retirement, K9 Baden carefully and diligently protected the Posel family.

For 6 years, K9 Baden served the Woodbury Police and community with unmatched dedication and loyalty. His bond with his handler was built on trust, courage, and devotion. This bond is deep, they are committed partners, on every call together, ensuring their team and community is safe. We are holding the Posel family in our thoughts.

We are grateful to have served next to K9 Baden and are thankful for the service he gave us.

These are our officers. Humans filled with compassion, empathy, respect, composure, and commitment to unwavering service.

On Thursday, May 21, Woodbury Detective Kim Richardson, Detective Caitlin Jaworski and Community Service Officer Stephanie Sosa were instrumental in helping ensure an individual in crisis on the St. Croix River bridge felt seen, valued and supported enough to return to safety.

Detective Richardson and Jaworski are skilled negotiators, known for their calm communication, patience, deep empathy, ability to build rapport and de-escalate a situation. Community Service Officer Sosa was able to translate for officers and demonstrated deep compassion and dedication to her partners and community. Together, these partners, along with officers from other agencies, listened to, talked with, and supported this individual in crisis for nearly an hour, until this individual chose to come back to safety.

We are proud of the way our team works together and the way they utilize the training and tools they have. More importantly, we are proud of who our people are.

Our team understands a conversation, a connection, or simply knowing someone is with you, can make all the difference. If you or someone you know is struggling with mental health, please reach out immediately. You are not alone and there are people who want to support you. For emergency situations, call 911. For non-emergency mental health support call Washington County Crisis Response Unit at 651-275-7400 or call the Su***de Prevention Hotline at 988.

The month of May is recognized as Mental Health Awareness Month, which provides a great opportunity to highlight our Community Support Unit (CSU). Woodbury’s CSU was formed in 2019 with the mission to provide focused efforts toward situations involving mental illness, substance abuse and homelessness through early interventions, ongoing case management, and connections to resources.

Earlier this month, the CSU attended the Minnesota Co-Responder Alliance Conference where CSU Detective Sack presented on mental health in the community, the services CSU provides, and how a therapy dog compliments the work of the CSU.

The Upper Afton Road Fire Station Open House was a wonderful success!

Thank you to so many neighbors and community members who stopped by to see the renovated space, explore the vehicles and visit with our firefighters. The evening was made extra special by a young resident who shared with us her school project about the importance of firefighters, and by a neighborhood couple who shared a generous donation of beautiful fire engine collectables for visitors to enjoy and select to bring home, that they had been collecting for decades!

These stories fill our hearts and remind us how supportive our community is of our first responders. Thank you for your support and celebrating with us!
