Today’s Good News
Citizens of Sector 413, which includes Jackson Ward, Oregon Hill and the Downtown area, saw the largest sector crime reduction during the third quarter of this year. “Partnership is the key!” Sector 413 Lt. Hamlet Hood said. “The reduction is directly related to the relationships that have been built and the information shared between community partners, such as VCU, neighborhood associations, citizens and businesses. The dedication and hard work by Sector 413 officers has also been a huge factor in the reduction.”
