We’re looking at these crime trends, these crime statistics,” said Leonhardt, who works in the operations support bureau. “We’re activity seeking those folks that are doing these crimes. The violent crimes hurt our communities the most. We know that. We’ve taken that initiative to get our gang unit up and running to work with our narcotics, our street crimes unit, to go into those communities where those crimes are occurring to try and help the community.”On top of the arrests, police seized nearly 65 grams of meth, 55 grams of fentanyl, 35 grams of crack cocaine and almost 50 grams of cocaine.
