Last week, former Sergeant Gregory Preece made his first public appearance after the shooting death of Tyisha Miller, to accept two awards he received from the Riverside Police Department and State Assemblyman Rod Pacheco for his role in the City Council shooting, on Oct. 6, 1998. The audience, consisting of over 300 police officers, their families and members of the city government whooped, hollered, clapped and cheered as he walked down the aisle of the council chambers to receive his awards. Much louder than they had clapped for any other award recipient.
