There’s something going on on McDonough in front of DHS right now, 8:45 a.m. Five, maybe six police cars with lights, officers out of their cars. Looked like they had their guns drawn.

…was walking by [the tracks at Mcdonough and Howard about 8:45 this morning] when the police jumped out of their cars with guns drawn…pretty scary stuff…We were waiting for the light to change and all of the sudden the police lights go on, the police surrounded the suspect’s car, and guns were drawn.

Deputy Chief Keith Lee gives us the lowdown…

While on patrol, a Decatur police officer located a stolen vehicle. A felony vehicle stop was conducted and all three occupants of the vehicle were taken into custody. No one was injured and the vehicle was recovered.

I was driving by the Postal Credit Union on W Ponce around 5:00. In the parking lot, there were several police cars with lights flashing and a ring of officers with guns drawn surrounding a man on the ground. Any idea what happened?

Assistant Chief Keith Lee fills us in…

Officers made a traffic stop for a speeding violation. It was determined the driver was wanted out of another jurisdiction on a felony warrant. Subsequent investigation revealed the two males in the vehicle were in possession of several stolen items
