Today’s Good News
Fourth Precinct Officer Robert Jamison recently responded to investigate what he thought was a pedestrian who had run into a tree, but he quickly determined that wasn't the case. Even though witnesses weren't very helpful and the pedestrian was a homeless man with some challenges, Officer Jamison stayed with the victim to the hospital to speak with him further. He was then able to figure out that what appeared to be an accident was actually an aggravated assault committed by another individual known to Officer Jamison thanks to his good knowledge of those in his sector. Officer Jamison secured warrants for the offender, which were served when the man was arrested in Louisiana and extradited back to Richmond. Good work Officer Jamison!
