On April 16, 2016 shortly after midnight, an undercover officer was working in the 4800 block of Columbia Avenue in an unmarked vehicle when a Latin male suspect possibly in his 20’s, approximately 5’6″ with short cropped hair in a blue hoodie and blue jeans, approached the officer with a handgun and demanded the officer’s property.
