Historical December 1976 police report. Arrests and charges are reported as allegations; no conviction is asserted.
This month we are saluting police officers Jesse Nash and Brenda Thompson for outstanding police work.
The officers while patrolling the area of Waterman Place, observed two subjects acting in a suspicious manner. As the officers approached the subjects, one subject threw to the ground, a revolver and screw driver.
The officers were able to arrest both, charging one with carrying a conceal weapon, and fugitive from the county for burglary.
The other subject was charged for being a fugitive from the County for stealing over $50.00 (auto).

HELP TEAM ONE FIGHT CRIME BY GIVING A GOOD DESCRIPTION.
