Today’s Good News

A Major Crimes detective recently wrote to commend Second Precinct Focus Mission Team Tactical Unit Officers Paul Cline, Obie Arrington, Cynthia Williams, Nicholas Caesar, Frank Scarpa and Richard McTernan for their assistance with a dual surveillance regarding suspects wanted in a drive-by shooting that injured two people.

“These officers should be recognized for their professionalism, diligence, sound tactics and positive attitudes,” the detective wrote. “All officers mobilized quickly on short notice and all willingly stayed beyond their shift to assist with this operation. Thanks to their efforts, the shooter was arrested without incident and the assault weapon was recovered along with more than 9 ounces of marijuana, pills and ammunition. This operation could not have been successful without their efforts.”

Today’s Good News

Kudos to Officer Ben Frazer who was named Third Precinct’s Officer of the Month for June! Highlighting Officer Frazer’s very productive month of policing was the June 15^th arrest of a man who had abducted two women from New York and forced them into prostitution in the Richmond area. The same man had multiple warrants on file in New York for carjacking, robbery and abduction and was also wanted for questioning in a homicide there.

Officer Frazer’s arrest of this man has had implications up and down the East Coast, and the U.S. Attorney’s Office has adopted the case in connection with a nationwide abduction-prostitution ring. Additionally, Officer Frazier made five felony and 24 misdemeanor arrests, seized guns and drugs, served nine warrants and wrote 27 summonses. Good job Officer Frazer!

Kudos to Officer Teru Hayashi who was named Second Precinct’s Officer of the Month for June! Officer Hayashi has taken community policing back to walking the beat, patrolling on foot for several hours last month in the areas of Foxwood, South Garden, Brookbury, Meadow Creek, Woodhaven and Southwood. He routinely engages the residents in these areas to maintain an ongoing partnership and he has created greater opportunities for community, all while taking reports for a variety of criminal offenses.

He responded to 118 radio calls month in addition to making three felony and 12 misdemeanor arrests. He uses opportunities between these radio calls for proactive purposes and to maintain sector integrity, including handing out crime prevention and awareness fliers. Thank you Officer Hayashi!

Kudos to Officer Mary Gary who was named First Precinct’s Officer of the Month for June! Officer Gary recognizes the fact that crimes like trespassing and DUIs can often escalate to something much more serious. That’s why she makes it a point to arrest trespassers in the Princess Anne Park community. Her ongoing crusade has resulted in multiple arrests that also included additional charges for everything from marijuana possession to open alcohol containers to a stolen firearm. Officer Gary is also proactive in fighting DUIs, making seven DUI arrests last month that also resulted in the seizure of illegal narcotics. These arrests likely saved lives, preventing the offenders from endangering the community on the roadways. Good work Officer Gary!
