“She’s remembered as a kind and caring officer,” officials said in a tweet. “Someone who loved children and modeled the definition of community policing.”
Analla was a Neighborhood Police Officer in the Bram’s Addition neighborhood, building relationships with the community, South Police District Captain Mike Hanson said.
“We will greatly miss Amanda’s positive energy and sincere smile. In the spirit of Amanda, smile as much as you can this week, be kind to one another and keep hope alive,” Hanson said in a statement on the department’s website.
Analla is survived by her wife and two young daughters.
