Please join NCPD in congratulating Officer Samuel Sanders, who received a Certificate of Recognition for October 2024.
On October 11, Officer Sanders was on patrol searching for a suspect involved in a bank robbery a few hours earlier. While patrolling the Pepperhill community, he identified a vehicle that matched the suspect’s description.
Noticing that the vehicle had defective equipment, Officer Sanders conducted a traffic stop and promptly notified our detectives, who arrived at the scene.
Detectives spoke with the driver and owner of the vehicle, which led to the discovery of the suspect, who was subsequently charged.
Thanks to Officer Sanders’ proactive patrol and keen observation skills, an arrest was made just a few hours after the robbery. Great job!
