It is with great sadness that the Decatur Police Department shares the passing of Officer Rodney Olistin.
Officer Olistin served our community for 2 ½ years as a patrol officer. His friendship, dedication, and service to our community will certainly leave a void. He was a colleague and friend to many, within our department and throughout Decatur. He is survived by his fiancée and their two children. Please keep them, as well as our department, in your thoughts and prayers, and respect the family's privacy during this difficult time.
Funeral arrangements will be shared once they have been finalized.
Rest easy, Officer Olistin. We'll take it from here.
