ReplyDeleteI would like to compliment Ivan Barkley and the SPD on catching the ATM thief.
ReplyDeleteBecause of their swift action in getting the video out, the public was able to help.
I have noticed real improvements since Chief Barkley came aboard. This is one example.
I hope he will continue as our chief. While we still have crime and the department seems to still have issues to be worked out, I think Chief Barkley has done a good job in less than a year.
I felt I had to say something because our police because a good job should get recognized even if everything is not perfect.
WTG, SPD for catching the ATM bad guy. GREAT JOB.
ReplyDeleteWow, initially the ATM thief was reported as being a black male. Is Paul Gomez black? Thanks for the helpful tips the correct person was arrested and charged.
ReplyDeleteGomez has a long history of problems. He's been in and out of jail and maybe this time he'll stay.
