Today’s Good News
Kudos to Officer Andrew Nicholson who was named Third Precinct’s Officer of the Month for February! It’s not all about the numbers, but Officer Nicholson’s numbers truly speak for themselves. During the month of February, Officer Nicholson worked with Midlothian motel managers to find and arrest six violent, wanted individuals; made 30 traffic stops that resulted in 21 summonses and nine misdemeanor arrests; and, he arrested two burglary suspects after catching them in the act!
Officer Nicholson further showed his diligence during a burglary investigation on Taylor Avenue. After assisting in setting up the perimeter and capturing the suspects, Officer Nicholson didn’t stop with just interviewing the suspects about the crime. He searched the vehicle they were driving and found hidden marijuana and another confession! Good job and thank you Officer Nicholson!
