PFC Weikert came to work for Carroll Valley in June of 2001.  Carroll Valley was his first full-time police position.

Patrolman Weikert received a commendation of gratitude for exemplary service and a job well done on March 12, 2002 from Mayor James Becraft for a vehicle stop that led to a discovery of a significant amount of marijuana.  

    In January and February of 2003 Carroll Valley and the Fairfield area were being plagued by a rash of evening burglaries that had Carroll Valley Police strengthening the early evening patrol.  In February Patrolman Weikert located, pursued and caught a suspect in these incidents.  From this initial arrest, jurisdictions in several PA counties and the State of Maryland have been able to link burglaries to the man Weikert arrested and the investigations continue.  In recognition for Patrolman Weikert's work on this case and on recommendation of the Mayor and Chief of Police, Weikert was promoted to Patrolman First Class by Borough Council in March 2003.  

 

Patrolman Weikert attended Gettysburg College where he was best known for his time on the gridiron.  After high school he attended Lycoming College in Williamsport to study Business.  After two years he transferred to Randolph-Macon College in Virginia where he received his BA degree in Business Economics and a Minor in Accounting in May of 2000. 

 

In May 2001, Weikert graduated from the Indiana University of Pennsylvania's Municipal Police academy where he was the Vice-president of his class.  Weikert started part-time at Gettysburg Police Department and Cumberland Township Police Department right out of the academy.
