April 8 – April 9, 2013

Today’s Good News

Kudos to Officer Kaneka McQueen who was named Fourth Precinct’s Officer of the Month for March! Officer McQueen had a busy March, making six misdemeanor arrests, seizing a firearm, issuing eight summonses and responding to 90 radio calls among some of her work.



During one incident last month, Officer McQueen assisted on a traffic stop with another officer that resulted in a foot pursuit. Though the driver tried to flee, they quickly arrested him and discovered the reason for his flight: he had a gun and marijuana in the vehicle. The offender was arrested and charged with several crimes. The Department greatly appreciates Officer McQueen’s efforts to make the community safer and the dedication and commitment she displays every day. Thank you Officer McQueen!
