RE:                 POLICE STOP OF DECEMBER 5, 2020

The Town of Windsor has received many citizen and media inquiries since issuing a press release Sunday concerning the police stop of Lt. Caron Nazario. As we have a limited staff, we are working to respond to them.

Daily, we are taking actions to rebuild the public's trust in the Windsor Police Department.

Today, all body cam footage of Officers Gutierrez and Crocker was posted on the Town of Windsor website and as additional information is provided, it will be posted here, as well. Find information here: www.windsor-va.gov/page/documents-and-downloads/

Additionally, the Chief of Police is continuing to implement training in accordance with Department of Criminal Justice standards for the Windsor Police Department, some of which will take place during the Virginia State Police investigation.

Further, the Virginia State Police investigation has begun and numerous requested documents have been provided.

Our goal is to always ensure transparency of our practices and procedures; we will provide information as possible, and as allowed, during the investigation.
