Kudos to Officer Andrew Nicholson who was named Third Precinct’s Officer of the Month for March! This is the second month in a row Officer Nicholson has received this recognition because of his great work. Officer Nicholson’s ability to consistently perform at the highest level of professionalism makes him a great asset to not only the Department, but to the Richmond community as a whole. During the month of March, he made three felony arrests, conducted 41 traffic stops, issued 24 summonses and made 12 misdemeanor arrests.
During one incident, he made multiple firearm arrests and assisted the community by removing a violent domestic assault offender from the streets. His kind demeanor during the incident also helped comfort the distraught young female victim. The offender was on his way back to the scene when Officer Nicholson stopped him in his tracks and arrested him. Officer Nicholson’s non-stop positive attitude and can-do work ethic inspires all around him. Thank you Officer Nicholson!
