Today’s Good News
Fourth Precinct Officers William Dickerson and Jerry Scott recently responded to investigate an armed robbery on Monteiro Avenue and as they pulled up, they saw the suspect quickly shedding clothing and running away. They broadcast the best description they could and Officer Brian Smith spotted and stopped the suspect nearby with the assistance of Officers Justin Land, Michael Disalvo and Robert Kleinholz. K-9 Officer James Turner and K-9 Arek tracked the suspect’s path and found some the victim’s stolen items and the suspect’s change of clothing while the suspect was interviewed by Detective Dale Shamburg, identified by the victim and then charged with robbery. Good teamwork!
