Today’s Good News
Just before 2 a.m. recently, First Precinct Officers Kelly Morley and
Tori Wilson heard a loud banging noise on Ambler Street and went to
investigate. As they pulled up, they saw two men running down the street and
gave chase on foot. The men ran through an alley, into the woods and over the
railroad tracks before doubling back, trying to evade the officers, but they
couldn’t hide from K-9 Phantom! As they officers called for backup, Sgt. Kenneth Peterson and K-9 Officer Monty
Agee and K-9 Phantom responded
and advised the men to stop running. When the men ignored the officers, K-9
Phantom sought the suspects out and safely made one apprehension. Though the
second suspect escaped, the first suspect was charged with destruction of
private property, resisting arrest and tampering with a vehicle. The
investigation remains ongoing. Good work all!
