San Pablo police officer busts a move with local 8-year-old dancer

SAN PABLO, Calif. - A San Pablo police officer was caught on video busting out serious dance moves last week alongside an 8-year-old named Ivan. 

Officer Cameron Banayat showcased his moves during his department’s National Night Out event on Tuesday, dancing in sync to Michael Jackson's Pretty Young Thing.

"We’re grateful for our community support and we look forward to continuing building upon the success we’ve built together with great officers like Officer Banayat," the department said in a Facebook post. 

Banayat, who is a school resource officer amongst other duties, was hailed in 2021 for helping a teenager who was suffering a mental health crisis.
