It's not about writing tickets - it's about saving
lives! 

March 11, 2008 - The first wave of the Smooth Operator Campaign was a total success. A total of 118 traffic citations were issued in 8 hours. A majority of the traffic citations were issued for maximum speed violations and the remaining were issued for suspended/unlicensed drivers, unregistered vehicles and expired state inspection/emissions violations. A 38 year old male was also arrested on a bench warrant out of Philadelphia for possession of controlled substances. I am certain that the first wave of enforcement was a success.

January 18, 2008 - Burglar Arrested - A 48 year old male from Chester was arrested on January 16th 2008 after an intensive 3 month burglary investigation. The suspect was arrested on a bench warrant in Media Borough last Wednesday night. Officers from Upper Providence Township assisted Media Borough and subsequent to his arrest, detectives from Upper Providence and Nether Providence Township conducted lengthy interviews. As a result, the suspect implicated himself in numerous burglaries in Upper Providence and Nether Providence Township dating back to October of 2007. Pursuant to investigation, a large quantity of jewelry and foreign currency was recovered from the suspect. Investigators are still working on leads and are hopeful that additional property will be recovered.  
 
January 14, 2008 Officer Larence Baker and Chief David Montella spent the morning speaking with students at St Mary Magdalen's about drug and alcohol awareness and peer pressure. Officer Baker demonstrates how steroids made a student look huge in an Eagles jersey, however the benefits were short lived. As Officer Baker popped each balloon, he reminded the students that the long term effects of steroid use remain forever. Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) also provided intoxication glasses. Students performed sobriety tests with and without the glasses. In each case, they were unable to pass when the glasses were worn.  Click Photo to Enlarge
