Officer Young was the lead on this case and completed this job with assuring the childrens safety and also getting four second-degree felony charges. I’m proud of this department after this one,” Spurlock said.

“We continue to see an increase in criminal behavior and that will continue — the one thing that I do not understand is why the criminals would bring that behavior to Camden,” Spurlock said. “I know they are aware of our aggressive policing. We will not tolerate your behavior; we have a different philosophy than a lot of departments. It may be right to some, it may be wrong — one thing is for certain: what we do is effective.”
