By Richmond Police Department

Friday night, Jan. 15, 2021, Central District Officer Fuller attempted to stop a car with stolen license plates. The driver refused to yield and shortly after, the car crashed into another vehicle in the intersection of Marina Way and Barrett Ave. Three suspects fled the vehicle and ran onto the Union Pacific train tracks. Officers searched the area and located all three subjects.

A search of the vehicle revealed five firearms, all fully loaded. Two of the guns were rifles and three were handguns with extended magazines. The two rifles were an AK-47 and AR-15 with high-capacity magazines.

All three suspects were either on parole or had outstanding warrants for their arrests.

It is a relief to have these firearms off the streets and we are extremely proud of our officers and their commitment to keeping our community safe.

    Can we really count on the police to protect and serve? I don’t trust any of them not when there so much hate and racism and no justice and its more police getting away with senseless killings of innocent people, thats probably why they felt the need to have there own protection..
