SALUTE
to First Responders
Why did you decide to be a policeman?
Growing up, I had several people in my family that were in law
enforcement. I felt a drawing towards law enforcement and truly
believed God opened many doors to the path of me becoming a
police officer. Being there for people who are in times of need is
very rewarding.
How long have you been with the Florence
Police Department?
I’ve been with the Florence Police Department since 2017.
Tell us about your family.
My family is a big part of my life. I married my wife in 2019
and could not have made it as far as I have without her. She was
very supportive of my decision in getting into law enforcement.
I also have a dog named Dexter that loves go for rides in the
truck and sleep.
What is the toughest thing you have experienced
in your job?
To me, anything involving children can be tough.
Share some things you enjoy doing in your spare time.
I enjoy being outdoors, fishing, and spending time with family
and friends.

Tanner
McCue
FLORENCE POLICE DEPARTMENT
What’s on your bucket list?
My bucket list is simple but important to me. My ultimate goal
is to have a simple home on a large amount of land when I retire
and enjoy nature with my grandchildren.
Who is someone you admire and why?
I admire every first responder for Rankin County and the state
of Mississippi who put their lives on the line every day to protect
the great people of their communities.
