‪UPDATE: We‘ve made an arrest in the assault on our off-duty Officer. A 16-year-old male was arrested & charged with felony Battery on a Law Enforcement Officer overnight. The investigation remains active & ongoing. Detectives are still searching for additional people involved.‬

Thank you for everyone’s caring and supportive posts. Both the officer and the initial victim are doing well.
