“It is always tragic when we have acts of violence within our community, but it is heart-wrenching when the perpetrator is supposed to be your protector. I am glad to hear that the victim is recovering at a local hospital, but the emotional trauma will remain for some time.” said Acting Chief of Police Cedric Heyward of Seat Pleasant in a statement.
It was decided to hold Brown without bond.
