Seven year old joins SWAT Team

Officer Jason Armstrong

The Norfolk Police Department welcomed a new member to the SWAT Team on Friday, and he is only 7-years-old.

With help from a local advocacy group known as the ROC SOLID Foundation, 7-year-old Hayden Miller, who is battling cancer, went out and struck a deal with Norfolk police.

“Our primary goal and our primary outreach is to give positive change and hope to children dealing with pediatric cancer,” said Eric Newman of the ROC SOLID Foundation.

“He’s gone through a heck of a lot more than any of us will ever go through,” said Jason Armstrong from the Norfolk Police Department.

Armstrong was the first to answer the call from ROC SOLID. He said  this request was a natural fit for the SWAT TEAM.

“He kind of characterized the spirit of what we believe in. Team and Loyalty,” said Armstrong.
