On 
		Monday evening the city of Lincoln welcomed a new police officer to the 
		city force. Officer Jason Bannister was introduced by Chief Ken 
		Greenslate.
 Greenslate presented 
		the city council with a brief resume on Bannister.
 
		Greenslate said,  “I would like to 
		introduce to you Jason Bannister as our newest probationary police 
		officer. Jason comes to us from the Southern View Police Department in 
		Springfield. Jason has been a police officer for six years. He was a 
		corporal with the Southern View Police Department. Jason is also a 
		member of the Illinois National Guard. While working for the Southern 
		View Police Department, Jason was honored with the Medal of Valor for 
		pulling a victim from a burning house while he was off-duty. I look 
		forward to Jason being a valuable addition to our department.” 
		Bannister 
		was then sworn into duty by Mayor Keith Snyder.
