Today’s Good News
Thanks to observant neighbors and
fast-responding Second Precinct officers,
two men who stole a heat pump from a house recently were quickly arrested. Officer Kenneth Greaves spotted the
suspects’ vehicle fleeing the scene as he arrived and broadcast the description
as he followed. Though he lost sight of
the vehicle, Officer Randy Hager
found it parked behind a residence nearby. He and Officers Robert Taylor and Steven Eacho then searched the area and
found and arrested both suspects. After further investigation by Detective Derrick Longoria, both
suspects were charged in connection with the theft. Good work officers and
neighbors for paying attention to your surroundings and notifying police of
suspicious activity!
