Today’s Good News
During the month of April, Third Precinct Officer Taylor Gainous
initiated several patrol tactics to drive down burglaries in certain
neighborhoods. Thanks to his hard work, when he responded to a burglary in the
Forest Hill neighborhood, he was quickly able to develop strong leads. As he investigated further, he was able to
find the suspicious vehicle in the area, and with the help of additional Third Precinct officers, arrested the
occupants without incident. The capture of these three offenders cleared two
burglaries and shows Officer Gainous’ initiative and commitment to the
community. Good work!
