TUCSON, Ariz. — When Kate Bravo met Tucson police officer Melissa Ayun at a “Coffee with a Cop” event, she never would’ve imagined she would become a police officer herself one day.She just graduated from the police academy last month and is already taking on cases.
For Bravo, being a women in a male-dominated field, isn’t an obstacle because she feels like the opportunities outweigh the stress of the job. She’s been an officer for 17 years and feels like the Tucson Police Department has done a good job of representing women. She said she would be willing to take women who are interested in becoming an officer on a ride-along.
