Today’s Good News

Fourth Precinct Officers Lloyd Boothe III, Scott Land and Donnell Patterson recently coordinated with Aggravated Assault Detective Chris Foultz to find a man wanted for shooting another man in Gilpin Court. The group worked together to identify the probably location and the patrol officers immediately spotted the suspect. As they took him into custody without incident, they recovered a firearm from his person. The suspect also confessed that the firearm was the same one he used in the shooting! The teamwork and responsiveness displayed by these officers removed a dangerous individual from the streets and likely prevented future acts of violence. Good work!
