The Fort Thomas Police Department saw the retirement of Officer Brad Adams, after 13 years of service. During his time with the FTPD, he served as Detective in the Investigations Unit for 10 years.
Other Notes:
– In early July, as first reported by FTM, the Fort Thomas Police Department implemented the new “tip app” called Sentiguard. According to the Det. Adam Noe, he said the response has been extremely positive. “We hope that the community continues to embrace the app along with the continued use and submission of tops that we have received thus far,” said Noe.
– The 9th Annual C.S.I. Fort Thomas summer enrichment program was hosted in July at Highlands. Officers William Hunt and Nick Hoffman and Det. Noe gave lectures and demonstrations to 26 students in methods of evidence collection and crime scene investigations.
– Officer Nick Hoffman received the 2015 Governor’s Occupant Protection Enforcement Awared at an awards banquet in Lexington. From June 2014 to June 2015, the FTPD wrote 279 seat belt violations and Hoffman was responsible for 97 of those.
– The Northern Kentucky Drug Strike Force asked to clarify what you can and cannot drop into the prescription drop box at the police department. Please do not drop liquids, ointments, gels, vitamins and syringes.
