Today we remember Officer Clarence L. “Boots” Shields.

On April 11, 1955, Officer Shields lost his life when he responded to a burglary.

Officer Shields served on the Topeka Police Department for 6 years and in the U.S. Merchant Marines. He was survived by his wife, a 2-year-old daughter and an 8-week-old son.

We thank Officer Shields for his service, and we honor him and his family for their sacrifice.

Ted was amazing and definitely made Topeka and Shawnee County a better place.

We extend our heartfelt condolences to the family and friends of Ted Ensley who passed away March 9, 2023.

Mr. Ensley was Shawnee County’s first parks and recreation superintendent. Hired in 1961, he spent 31 years in the position, making Shawnee County a better place to live.

This afternoon, Senator @JerryMoran announced that TPD and the @ShawneeSheriff are recipients of a grant from the U.S. Department of Justice. We'd like to thank Senator Moran for his support of law enforcement in Topeka and Shawnee County and his work serving the state of Kansas.
