We've got a runner! Our Gang Unit detectives are working around the clock to keep violent crime out of Jacksonville.

While patrolling one night, they noticed a young man acting suspiciously and appearing to hide a fi***rm.

When he took off running, detectives chased him and saw him toss a gun. And yes, it was all caught on camera in a recent COPS episode.

We’re taking you inside the action on COPS all season long with new episodes dropping every Friday on Fox Nation.

These segments were recorded between March and April of 2025 and have been edited for time.

Please join us in recognizing Detective Walt Leddy as our September Detective of the Month!

On March 22, 2026, we responded to a heartbreaking shooting that took the life of 2-year-old A'mahri Robinson. The suspect, 21-year-old Steven Dodson, escaped before detectives could take him into custody.

Detectives quickly worked to get an arrest warrant, but Dodson remained on the run. We put all available resources on the case, enlisting numerous units in the search. Detective Leddy, a member of our Gang Investigations Unit, and colleagues tracked Dodson, and arrested him in less than 24 hours.

Dodson later pleaded guilty and is now serving a life sentence.

Detective Leddy’s hard work and dedication played a large part in arresting Dodson and bringing some closure to Robinson's family in the wake of this unspeakable crime. We thank our entire team of officers, detectives, and analysts for working for justice.

125 lives lost on Jacksonville roads. As we work to prevent this, our detectives are working to investigate each death and hold drivers accountable.

Our Traffic Homicide Unit detectives have a heartbreaking but important role in our community: responding to and investigating each traffic fatality. They take their work personally.

From gathering surveillance footage and witness statements to extensive research and reconstructions of the crashes, our detectives can learn what led to a traffic fatality. Then, they can determine if someone should be held criminally responsible. They also help track down hit-and-run drivers.

Lives are on the line. We don't want to lose someone else's loved one on our roads.

Please slow down, stay off your phone, and drive safe, Duval.

Since October 2025, District 3 Officer Anthony Delacruz has investigated a series of thefts at the St. Johns Town Center totaling more than $20,000.

After getting a tip that a driver was getting paid to take the thief to different stores to commit these crimes, our officers moved in.

Officer Laurer spotted the suspect carrying more than $3,000 worth of merchandise. When the suspect took off, Officer Delacruz chased him and caught him hiding behind a dumpster.

Officers also identified and arrested the driver who transported the thief.

This is not a victimless crime. These thefts increase prices for merchandise and put customers and employees in danger. Great police work, a valuable tip, and teamwork helped bring this investigation to a close.

No matter how mad you get at them, don't hit your friends with your truck. That's a lesson a Northside man learned after a beef with his buddy.

District 6 Patrol officers responded to the not-so-friendly encounter, tracked down the driver and noticed his truck was hidden under a tarp, still warm to the touch, with zip ties attempting to fix the damage. It didn't help his case, and he went to jail.

It's all caught on camera in a recent episode of COPS.

We're taking you inside the action on COPS all season long, with new episodes dropping every Friday on Fox Nation.

“One case of domestic violence is one case too many.”

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month.

Domestic violence is a crime. Survivors have nothing to hide and nothing to be ashamed of. Working with law enforcement can help save lives and hold abuserd accountable.

In 2025, domestic violence claimed 21 lives in Duval County, including 10 deaths connected to intimate partner violence.

Today, we stood alongside our local, state and federal partners in support of those living with or surviving abuse.

Beth is a powerful example of the hope that can follow a life of abuse. After surviving domestic violence at the hands of her ex-husband, Beth did the bravest thing she could do and left. She rebuilt her life. Today, she is getting remarried, pursuing her dream job, and thriving. Her story reminds us that survivors can find hope, rebuild, and create a future beyond abuse.

If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic violence, help is available. Call 911 or the JSO non-emergency line at 904.630.0500. You can also call the 24/7 Hubbard House Hotline at 904.354.3114.

We will meet you where you are and work together to build a community where everyone feels safe, supported, and free from abuse. Hubbard House, Inc. State Attorney's Office, 4th Judicial Circuit of Florida City of Jacksonville, Florida - Government

Jacksonville Sheriff T.K. Waters announced the arrest of Patrol Officer Michael Schrum on one count of domestic battery, a first-degree misdemeanor, during a public briefing.

On Tuesday, September 29, the victim, who is in a domestic relationship with Schrum, reported that Schrum committed a domestic battery on September 16.

The JSO Integrity Unit launched an investigation and learned that Schrum was intoxicated, became enraged, and struck the victim multiple times, causing visible injuries.

Integrity Unit detectives arrested Schrum Tuesday evening and stripped him of his police authority. While due process must be followed, the agency will seek Schrum’s termination.

This is the 9th arrest of a JSO employee by the agency this year.

The fight for justice never stops.

Last Wednesday, our officers made a fourth arrest in connection with the 2023 double murder of Bryant Grund and Antonio Tillie Jr.

We arrested 31-year-old Jamaal Hameen on two counts of second-degree murder and one count of accessory after the fact. Hameen was already in our jail on unrelated charges at the time of his arrest.

On October 6, 2023, 19-year-old Antonio Tillie Jr. and 31-year-old Bryant Grund were shot and killed on Kylan Drive. Our investigators determined that the double murder was tied to a $20,000 gang-related hit targeting Tillie. Grund was an Uber driver simply doing his job when he was killed.

Hameen's arrest follows Ju’Quan Mills, Diamond Harris, and Jimmy Robinson, who have also been charged in connection with the case.

For the families of Bryant Grund and Antonio Tillie Jr., we kept pushing forward. We kept investigating, identifying those responsible and holding everyone involved accountable.
