Meet this week’s “Special Person of the Week: Mike Cabral

Mike Cabral fulfilled his dream and became a Somerville Police Officer in 1987. During his career he rose through the SPD as a Detective, Sergeant, Lieutenant, Captain, Deputy Chief and acting Chief in 2010.

Mike has had an impressive career as a highly decorated police officer, receiving departmental awards and commendations, and a graduate of the FBI’s prestigious National Academy Executive Program.

This January 2018, Mike will be retiring and looking forward to spending quality time with his wife Deb, children, and grandchildren.

Mike was more than a Somerville Police Officer to many people in Somerville, he is a true friend, gentleman, and truly one of Somerville’s finest!
