Who Played Mike Sorensen On Chicago PD?
Appearing in a trio of episodes on NBC's popular police procedural "Chicago P.D.," Officer Mike Sorensen has a relatively brief but colorful tour of duty with the 21st District Intelligence Unit squad in this One Chicago hit. Introduced for the first time in the Season 4 episode, "Some Friend," Sorensen is teamed up with I.U. officer Kim Burgess (Marina Squerciati) on a call that leads to a bloody body and what appears to be a human trafficking ring. Later in the same episode, Burgess and Sorensen chase down a sandwich thief, which results in Sorensen breaking his nose before Burgess tases the culprit.
Sorensen's time on the force doesn't get much better for him in his next appearance in Episode 7 ("300,000 Likes"). In this installment, he and Burgess pull over a suspiciously weaving driver who turns out to be wearing a chastity belt. In an impulsive moment of poor decision-making, Sorensen uploads footage of the stop from his body cam and posts it on Facebook. Desk Sgt. Trudy Platt (Amy Morton) is not amused. And, after turning up for one more stint in Episode 8 ("A Shot Heard Round the World"), Sorensen is never seen again in the show.
So, who was the actor who briefly partnered up with Kim Burgess as Mike Sorensen on "Chicago P.D."?
Veteran actor, producer, director Kevin Kane played Officer Sorenson on Chicago P.D.
