The Lady Lake Police Department proudly welcomed James Dunagan and Allen Greene as new Patrol Lieutenants. They were sworn in by Chief Steve Hunt during the Lady Lake Town Commission meeting last night.
In their new roles, Lt. Dunagan and Lt. Greene will oversee the daily operations of the Patrol Division as Watch Commanders, each serving alternating shifts from noon to midnight. This new structure will enhance administrative oversight and provide additional leadership and guidance to the department.
Lt. Dunagan began his law enforcement career in 1996 with the City of Leesburg, where he earned recognition for his investigative expertise and leadership in high-profile cases. A U.S. Army veteran, Lt. Dunagan has also served as a field training officer, CVSA examiner, and team leader for the Critical Incident Response Team.
Lt. Greene’s career in law enforcement began in 2002 with the City of Altamonte Springs. Over the years, he advanced through various roles, including Lieutenant in the Street Crimes/Narcotics Unit and Watch Commander overseeing patrol operations. Lt. Greene, a U.S. Army veteran, brings over 17 years of experience and leadership to the Lady Lake Police Department.
These outstanding officers bring invaluable experience and dedication to their new roles, and we’re excited to see the positive impact they’ll make on our community.
