Garland Says Authorities Will Target School Board Threats
The Ralston Police Department recently added three new police officers to the force, filling recent vacancies.
Officers Jason Grob, Joshua Sexton and Alexandria Stobbe were hired on Aug. 27, and were approved by the Ralston City Council and officially sworn in on Sept. 7.
The new officers were certified, allowing them to begin immediately on the road with a field training officer, after a week-long training session. Officers must complete three months of field training, followed by a two-week shadow phase before working patrol shifts alone.
Officer Grob is a Bellevue native and Bryan High School graduate, and also attended Metro Community College and Bellevue University.
Grob served in the U.S. Navy from 2009 to 2014 where he served as a combat engineer/Seabee and was honorably discharged. Grob worked for the Bellevue Police Department for a little over a year before joining the Ralston Police Department.
Officer Sexton was born in Colorado, and had previously lived in Texas, but he was raised in the Omaha area and graduated from Millard South High School.
Sexton served in the U.S. Army at Fort Hood, Texas, from 2005 to 2009 and was honorably discharged. From 2009 to 2013, Sexton worked as a correctional officer in Nebraska and Texas. He also worked from 2013 to 2019 as an officer for the Beeville Police Department and Bee County Sheriff’s Office as a deputy in Beeville, Texas, located about an hour northwest of Corpus Christi.
From February 2019 to January 2020 and April 2020 to August 2021, Sexton worked for the San Patricio County Sheriff’s Office in Texas before returning to Nebraska and joining the Ralston Police Department.
Officer Stobbe hails from Grand Island, graduating from Loup City High School, and has attended Central Community College’s Grand Island campus and Rockhurst University in Kansas City, Missouri.
Stobbe was a security officer/supervisor for G4S Solutions and an armed security officer with Rockhurst University. Stobbe was hired by the Grand Island Police Department where she worked for four years until May 2020.
After her departure, she worked for a FedEx ground company, seasonal UPS work, and recently with the USPS as a carrier assistant until joining the Ralston Police Department.
