Today’s Good News

Kudos to Officer Benjamin Frazer who was named Third Precinct’s Officer of the Month for July! It’s like déjà vu all over again with this guy! Yes, Officer Frazer was Third Precinct’s Officer of the Month for June. And he’s back again. Here’s why: Violent crime is down 26 percent for the year in Sector 312, in part thanks to the work of Officer Frazer. He’s been tasked with handling specific issues that occur during the evening and midnight shift hours, including warrant sweeps along the Midlothian corridor, speeding complaints and drug complaints.

He responded to citizen complaints on Keaneland Drive about vice activity and rowdy behavior and his investigation resulted in a felony indictment. Five of Officer Frazer’s field contacts last month also ended with arrests, contributing to his 23 misdemeanor arrests and 6 felony arrests for the month. Congratulations and thank you Officer Frazer!
