Officers conducted traffic stops, warrant checks, beat patrols, domestic violence case follow-ups, and order of protection violation checks, just to list a few.


As a result of the enforcement details, approximately twenty-five arrests were made. The arrests included: warrant arrests, crime in progress arrests, order of protection violation arrests, foot pursuits, narcotics arrests, narcotics recoveries, and arrests of some of the Top 10 Most Wanted Individuals.
