CPD sergeant honored for apprehension of robbery suspect
Sgt. Maurice Hobbs of the Tennessee Highway Patrol was recognized by Clarksville Police Chief Al Ansley at Police Headquarters for his actions in apprehending a suspect who was charged with committing two robberies within hours of each other.
On February 4, at approximately 3:06 a.m, Sgt. Hobbs was passing by the Mapco Express store located at 640 Providence Blvd. As Sgt. Hobbs passed by the store, he noticed a person standing at the register with a hooded jacket pulled over their head. Sgt. Hobbs then turned his vehicle around and as he pulled onto the lot of the Mapco, the suspect quickly exited the store and the clerk ran out of the store telling Sgt. Hobbs that she had just been robbed.
Not knowing if the suspect was armed with a weapon, Sgt. Hobbs gave chase and was able to single-handedly take the suspect into custody after a short foot pursuit. After an interview with a Clarksville police detective it was determined that the suspect Sgt. Hobbs had taken into custody was not only responsible for robbing the Mapco Express, but was also responsible for a theft of property that occurred at a local business several hours earlier.
