Today’s Good News
First Precinct Officer Kelly Morley was on a directed patrol in the Oak Grove neighborhood recently when she smelled a strong odor of marijuana coming from a residence on Dinwiddie Avenue. While waiting for Officer Richard Chappell to obtain a search warrant for the residence, Officers Morley and Tori Wilson detained two occupants who tried to leave the home. A subsequent search of the residence revealed 19 marijuana plants—a street value of 42 pounds—as well as numerous marijuana grow operation paraphernalia. Both men were arrested and the investigation remains ongoing
