Good morning, everyone, it's 12am. It's a clear overnight with temps in the mid 30s, and today is supposed to partly cloudy with temps in the mid 40s. Boy is it a crazy night in 14, though. We just had a huge traffic pursuit to take place a little bit ago, and there's a bit of a high volume of calls on an early January overnight. I'm monitoring 14 from now until about 12:15am or so, then I'm headed to bed until 7:33, at which time I'll get up and cover 25 until 12:14pm. After that, I won't be back until 7:03pm, which then I'll cover 14 until 7:59. After that, I'll be gone. With that, here's crime for today.
