Our Community Oriented Policing and Problem Solving Squad (COPPS) remains committed to resolving issues that could impact the safety of others.
Last week, officers received a tip that a man was threatening to shoot another man in the Griffin Heights Apartments, located at 1010 Basin Street. Officers verified the information and quickly located the suspect vehicle as he pulled into the apartment complex. At the sight of officers, the man abandoned the vehicle and fled on foot before being taken into custody by officers. Additionally, a search of the vehicle yielded a loaded firearm located where the suspect was seated.
Curbing violent crime in our community can't be done without the public's assistance. We encourage the community to call us at 850-891-4200 to report suspicious activity. You can also remain anonymous by calling Crime Solvers at 850-574-TIPS.
Great work by our COPPS team and Patrol officers!
