Retired DPD Division Chief Ron Saunier was in attendance on Monday, July 24, to watch his son, Kyle Saunier, be honored by the Denver Police Foundation.It was just a few days before Christmas when Denver Police Sergeant Kyle Saunier was dispatched to Union Station, along with several other cops, to deal with an individual who was armed with scissors and two pit bulls — and acting irrationally.
In attendance was Saunier's father, retired DPD Division Chief Ron Saunier — a legend in his own right, with over three decades on the force and multiple shout-outs from police officials that afternoon, including one fromto start the awards ceremony and glowing praise for him afterward. "He suddenly pushed the elevator button and the elevator doors opened," recounted West."The subject now had an opportunity to escape, and the officers determined the best course of action would be to storm the subject with a shield. The officers knew this tactic was risky because it would be in striking range of the scissors, but with no other good options, they then pressed forward in a line. The subject struck officers violently with the scissors.
