Deputy Dennis West

  On September 4, 2014 Deputy Jason Cunningham was dispatched to a burglary that had just occurred at 436 Pleasant Home Road.  Dispatch put out a description of the suspect over the radio.  Deputy Cunningham was advised by Deputy Dennis West of a possible suspect riding a bicycle matching the description of the one stolen, traveling on the 3600 block of Walton Way Extension.  Deputy Cunningham, along with Deputy West, performed an investigatory stop, and determined that the subject was in fact the burglary suspect.  The suspect was taken into custody and the stolen property was recovered on the scene.  The quick response and actions of Deputy Cunningham  and Deputy West led to the arrest of the suspect and recovery of the stolen property. The efforts of these deputies are to be commended and their actions are appreciated by this office and all of Richmond County.
