Just before 10 pm on April 10th 2022, Officers Kevin Golinsky and Travis Briggs were on patrol when they saw an unlicensed adult male driving a vehicle. Acting on the violation, officers stopped the car in the 200 block of N Queen Street.
While speaking with the driver and his adult male passenger, Officers Golinksy and Briggs noticed that both were extremely nervous. Low and behold, both had reason to be. The passenger was found to have a warrant and, once he realized the gig was up, the man alerted officers that he was armed with not one but two handguns. Officers quickly and safely seized the 9mm and Standard .38 semi-automatic handguns the man had hidden on his torso. The man, a convicted felon for prior arrests of drug dealing and illegal gun carrying, is safely behind bars.
Thank you Officers Golinksy and Briggs for taking action as well as for your bravery and professionalism!
