OFFICER SPARKS PRESENTED WITH LIFESAVING AWARD On Friday, November 7, 2025, Officer Joseph Sparks was presented with a Lifesaving Award (with valor) at the Oregon Peace Officers’ Association annual banquet at the Spirit Mountain Casino in Grand Ronde, OR. Officer Sparks was nominated for the award by Captain Thomas Lindahl, the Operations Captain of the Coos Bay Police Department, for his heroic actions February 21, 2025. Below is an excerpt from the nomination Captain Lindahl submitted to the OPOA: “On February 21, 2025, while on dayshift patrol, Officer Joseph Sparks demonstrated extraordinary initiative and heroism that directly resulted in saving a man’s life. At approximately 1312 hours, after clearing a previous call, Officer Sparks noticed a medical emergency in the dispatch queue. Although the Coos Bay Police Department does not typically respond to medical calls, Officer Sparks reviewed the call details and learned that an elderly male was choking on a sandwich. Officer Sparks arrived and began administering life-saving aid within three minutes of the initial 911 call—well before paramedics. His quick thinking, composure under pressure, and willingness to act outside the typical scope of duty were instrumental in preventing what would have likely been a fatal outcome. Officer Sparks’ selfless actions exemplify the highest standards of public service and reflect great credit upon himself and the Coos Bay Police Department. His courage and commitment to the preservation of life make him highly deserving of the Life Saving Award.” Please join us in congratulating Officer Joseph Sparks!Photos from Coos Bay - City Government's post Featured News by City of Coos Bay
