June 24 – June 25, 2014

Today’s Good News
A Second Precinct sergeant recently wrote to commend First Precinct Officer David Woods for his actions during a shooting that occurred Monday. “I just wanted to let you know what an outstanding job Officer Woods did (even though) he was working off duty on Hull Street when the shooting occurred. He responded immediately and started helping us out with a chaotic scene that was actually two scenes and several vehicles leaving the area,” the sergeant wrote.

“Officer Woods not only responded and offered assistance there on scene, but noticed that an ambulance had left the scene to take one victim to the hospital without an officer following. Officer Woods quickly followed and stayed with the victim for several hours until other officers could control the scene and send another officer to relieve him. Please thank him again for me and my platoon.”
