Crews, a Salisbury native, has nearly 25 years of law enforcement experience. Before his career with SPD, he was a part-time deputy with the Rowan County Sheriff’s Department in various roles. Upon joining SPD, he was assigned to the K-9 squad, where he remained for nine years. Crews also served in a supervisory role in the narcotics and recruitment divisions

In April of 2019, he was promoted to lieutenant, and assigned as the Charlie and David patrol teams supervisor.

Crews holds an associate’s degree in criminal justice from Stanly Community College and bachelor’s degree from Charleston West Virginia University. He has also earned a general, intermediate and advanced certificate from the North Carolina Justice Education and Training division.
