Baltimore, MD - May 31, 2016 - A letter of commendation praising a Baltimore Police detective was sent to Baltimore Police by Shomrim General Counsel Nathan Willner. Below is the content and the letter.
Yesterday, on May 30, 2016 between the approximate hours of 7:00 am and 9:30 am our Neighborhood experienced five muggings. These incidents, all perpetrated by the same three suspects, terrorised members of the Jewish community. Most of the victims were individuals going to daily prayers at their synagogues. The suspects brandished knifes and stole cell phones, wallets and in one instance the victim’s vehicle.
As a result of community cooperation and immediate interaction between. BSSP Coordinator, Ron Rosenbluth with Detective Warczyski, within two hours of these crimes, one suspect was taken into custody and by the close of the day, four warrants were issued. Detective Warczyski immediately communicated the excellent work of the BPD and was sincerely concerned that “everyone in the community sleeps better” last night. Her quick detective work definitely assuaged many frightened community members.
Our members and our community were impressed with Detective Warczyski’s police work, her respectful and attentive demeanour. The detective in this instance was extremely efficient, professional and sensitive to the needs of the Community. We would like to bring her excellent attitude and this positive interaction with the Detective to your attention. We would like to formally commend Detective Melissa Warczyski for her impressive actions as a positive, dedicated and upstanding reflection of the Baltimore City Police Department.
