“We are extremely pleased to announce these arrests. I want to commend the work done by our Criminal Investigative Unit on this case. I also want to thank the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency and the Greenville Police Department for their invaluable assistance,” said Millbrook Police Chief P.K. Johnson.
“Individuals that commit this type of violence, with no regard for the lives of others, have no business on our streets. I’m sick and tired of these individuals that think they can come into our city, commit these violent acts and then run down the interstate to avoid being apprehended. Our detectives and police officers take pride in our city and they are professional law enforcement officers that take their job protecting this city and our citizens seriously. We’ve developed outstanding working relationships with law enforcement agencies in our surrounding area and we work very well with our law enforcement partners to locate and apprehend offenders that commit these offenses. You can run, but just know that there will be a knock on the door or blue lights behind you in the near future,” Johnson said.
