Officer Krebs grew up in Mapleton and now serves his community as a full time police officer. Officer Krebs is passionate about his work, but communicates with people in a calm and compassionate manner. There is no doubt in my mind that he truly cares about the people that he serves.

Officer Krebs comes to work with a smile on his face every day. He is pleasant to be around and always looks for the good in a situation. Officer Krebs does not complain, but rather looks for ways for he and his department to improve every day.

Recently Mapleton experienced an increase in theft and drug violations. Officer Krebs jumped in and began investigating all avenues to curb the activity. Without being asked he went through drug house garbage cans in hopes of gathering evidence for a search warrant. He conducted surveillance on numerous homes where drug activity was taking place and made legal stops of vehicles leaving in hopes of stopping the activity. Officer Krebs is passionate about keeping the public safe from impaired drivers. He is our department leader in DUI and drug related arrests.

Officer Krebs is a family first type of officer. He and his wife have three little children together. Officer Krebs and his wife are passionate outdoor people who will hike to extreme places that many of us would not consider.

Officer Krebs is the type of officer that I'm prod to have represent the City of Mapleton. He understands the importance of his role in serving our citizenry. No call is too minor for him to show compassion to.
