Today’s Good News
Talk about good timing! Second Precinct Officer Ezequiel Canete walked inside a restaurant this week just as a man was trying to rob it at gunpoint. Though the would-be robber ran away, Canete, Officer Chris Williams, K9 Officer Monty Agee, K9 Koda, Officer Michael DiSalvo and Detective Floyd Campbell surrounded and searched the area until he was found, arrested and charged with attempted armed robbery. Good work everyone!

During the July 4th holiday, our Division of Emergency Communication officers worked like a well-oiled machine to safely manage several simultaneous and back-to-back events. Two nights in a row, they juggled two in-progress burglaries and held the radio traffic to hear what was going on. All the while, they coordinated the Air and K9 units’ responses and still worked subject stops and a foot pursuit to keep officers safe and everyone informed. Good work DEC officers!
