GREAT TEAMWORK!

This morning, a caller reported someone spray painting cars near Decatur and Harmon Avenue within LVMPD SVAC

About one minute after the report, LVMPD’s AIR2 helicopter picked up the call from LVMPD dispatch. Moments later, AIR2 located the suspect and guided patrol officers to the exact location.

As you can see in the video, the suspect attempted to flee but was taken into custody without further incident. It’s tough to outrun the helicopter and officers!

Great work by everyone involved!

Tennessee: An off-duty officer was injured after attempting to stop a shoplifter at a Walmart, according to the Metro Nashville Police Department.

MNPD said the off-duty Greenfield Police officer was working as a security guard for Walmart in the 5800 block of Nolensville Pike when he tried to stop a shoplifter.

While trying to stop the shoplifter, the off-duty officer deployed his taser. However, the suspect made it to a vehicle, a red Ford Escape with an unknown TN tag.

The off-duty officer, who was standing in front of the suspect’s vehicle, told them to stop, but the suspect then reportedly attempted to hit the officer with the car.

The officer then fired shots into the vehicle, MNPD said. At this time, there have been no walk-ins at any hospitals in Davidson County or any surrounding county with gunshot wounds.

MNPD said the off-duty officer was injured in the incident and was taken to a hospital for treatment.

Please join us in sending prayers and, or, positive thoughts for his recovery. 🙏🏽

Don’t run from a Henry County Deputy — just ask “The Freeze!”

While on vacation at Truist Park, home of the Atlanta Braves, our very own Sgt. Tyler Marinus took on the legendary “Freeze” in a race… and WON!

For those who know baseball, “The Freeze” is famous for his lightning speed — but this time, he couldn’t catch one of Henry County’s finest.

Let this be your friendly reminder: if you try to run… you better be faster than The Freeze (and Sgt. Marinus)!
