Today’s Good News
Second Precinct Officers Richard McTernan and Obie Arrington were on patrol recently when they heard a suspect description broadcast from an armed robbery that had occurred on Clarkson Road. Thanks to their keen observation skills, they spotted suspects matching the robbers’ descriptions several neighborhoods away. As they approached the group, everyone ran. The officers gave chase and arrested one of the suspects without incident. They also recovered the victim’s property and a firearm used during the crime. Good work!
