Security Protective Service

Earlyer this evening while out on foot patrol one of our Officers heard gunshots from a couple buildings away. The Officer began running in the direction of the shots. Children from the area playground were running towards the officer and away from the gunfire. The Officer crossed the playground and rounded the corner of the building where he was assisted by residents of the area who while trying to get away still directed the Officer to the shooter and provided a discription. At the other end of the building the Officer confronted the gunman. When confronted the shooter immediately complied with the Officers instructions and was taken into custody. The gun was recoverd at the scene.

I'd like to recognize Officer Frank Karsten who just apprehended his 5th nonresident teenager this week, all were lurking around after midnight on one of our properties. His efforts have coincided with a week of no home burglaries, car thefts, car burglaries, robberies or vandalism for the property.

Last night there were reports of vehicle tampering at the Greenbrier Apts, by two black males one with dreadlocks and one with short hair on foot. We receved 3 seperate calls and spoke with 5 additional witnneses. Officers were unable to locate the individuals although an additional officer was called in and the search continued with the assistance of concerned residents for almost two hours. No vehicles appear to have been broken into during the incident. Should anyone have information relating to this incident please call our dispatch number or contact one of our officers in person.
