Lincoln Sisson

My name is Lincoln Sisson. I worked as a patrolman in Providence, RI from 1995 to 1999 before moving to the Police Training Division and the Weapons Bureau. Over the course of my career, I have became a firearms instructor, joined the Providence Police S.W.A.T. Team, and became a nationally certified K-9 dog handler. Currently, I work as a K-9 handler at the Rhode Island Convention Center and Amica Mutual Pavilion in downtown Providence, where I help secure events as part of Homeland Security.

In the aftermath of the Boston Marathon bombing I assisted Amtrak Police in Providence providing extra K-9 support at the Providence Station and Boston’s South Station during the week after that awful day. In the following year of 2014 myself and my bomb detection K-9 “Kyra” were requested to provide K-9 support for the Boston Police Department at the Boston marathon and was tasked with K-9 patrols at the finish line on Boylston Street, Boston.
