Today’s Good News
Second Precinct Officers Timothy Wade and Anthony Ratliff recently responded to a shoplifting call at a business in Southside Plaza. Though the suspect escaped, the officers used the vehicle information gathered by the shop owner to find and identify the man a few days later. Though the man tried to flee, the officers caught him and charged him with two counts of felony petit larceny, two counts of driving while being declared a habitual offender, felony attempting to elude police and simple assault. They also served him with three warrants from Chesterfield County where he was on the county’s Top Ten Most Wanted List. These officers should be commended for their timely response, follow through and dedication to the citizens of Richmond.
