The Brownsville Police Department has one of their officers back after being away for nearly a year serving in Iraq as a soldier.
Laurie Noriega, a mother and wife, was stationed in Iraq for nearly 10 months fixing convoys and providing transportation to fellow soldiers. While her experience was a good one, she says she's very glad to be home with her family whom she missed tremendously while she was stationed overseas. Now that she's back home as a police officer, she will be making sure Brownsville residents are safe.
