Today’s Good News

Though he’s not a detective yet, Third Precinct Officer Benjamin Frazer may be soon! Officer Frazer recently responded to a robbery on Midlothian Turnpike and was able to find and arrest the robber. But he didn’t stop there. Through his investigation, he was able to determine that this same person had robbed another person a few hours earlier AND he was able to link this robber to a third robbery in June as well. Good work removing this violent offender from the streets, Officer Frazer!
