Hawthorne lieutenant named 'narc' of the year
Jim Royer will receive the organization's Alfred E. Stewart Memorial Award naming him the CNOA's "Narcotic Officer of the Year."
"Royer has been dedicated to narcotics crimes in the city of Hawthorne and surrounding areas, and has a long standing record of successfully enforcing narcotics laws and working cooperatively with other departments at the local, state and federal level," the organization said.
The CNOA names one police officer and one prosecutor each year as its recipients of the Stewart award.
The prosecutor is Michael Lowe, an Assistant United States Attorney in Los Angeles. Lowe has prosecuted narcotics cases since he joined the office in 1998.
CNOA is a non-profit association that provides training in the narcotics enforcement field for law enforcement professionals.
