Corporal Michael Humphreys,

   On January 13, 2015, while on concentrated patrol in Zone 6 for the increase in day time burglaries, Corporal Michael Humphreys and Deputy Calvin Davis got out on foot in Trinity Manor Apartments at 2375 Barton Chapel Rd to check the apartment complex.  Deputies observed two unknown black males behind Building 6 leaning over some unknown objects.  Deputies attempted to walk toward the subjects to speak to them when the subjects split up and walked away in an attempt to avoid deputies.  Corporal Humphreys and Deputy Davis were able to make contact with one of the subjects between Buildings 9 and 10 and retrieved a Play Station controller that the subject threw down.  While both deputies were speaking with the subject, Deputy Rachel Hardin went to the location where the subjects were first observed and found three flat screen televisions and a PlayStation 3.  During the investigation Deputy Brantley, H-2, was dispatched to 3618 Brussels St in reference to a burglary where three flat screen televisions and a PlayStation 3 were stolen.  Corporal Humphreys and Deputy Davis were able to back track the subject’s shoe prints through a wooded area to the recent burglary location at 3618 Brussels Street.  The subject was arrested and charged with burglary.

Thanks to the efforts and dedication of Corporal Humphreys and Deputy Davis, a burglary suspect was taken off the streets.   Their actions are appreciated by this office and all of Richmond County.
