I didn’t think I would need to make this request but here we are.

If we arrest you, we kindly ask that you do not pull your pants down and plop a log in our backseats while on the way to the jail.

We will make you clean it up with your own shirt. Jail trustees will also have to clean it up, and you are going to be staying with them for a few days. Might not be a smart idea to make your new roommates clean up your p**p. 💩

Anyway… thanks.

With candy prices higher than a suspect’s blood pressure during a traffic stop, we’ve had to make some budget-friendly changes to this year’s Trunk or Treat.

Instead of the usual favorites, we’ll be passing out N&N’s, 2 Musketeers, 50 Grand Bars, KitDogs, Rice-unkrispies, and Buttertoes. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your cooperation during this difficult time.

Deer season is here, Michigan! Remember, deer don't know the rules of the road, and they definitely don't care about your deductible.

This time of year, the bucks are chasing does and thinking with the wrong head…

Slow down, stay alert, and watch out for deer on the move!

Wanted to give Officer Cook (left) and K9 Indy (right) a huge shoutout!

Last night, the distinguished duo tracked down a stabbing suspect while assisting a local agency. The subject was ultimately taken into custody. Fantastic job fellas!!

For his reward, we made sure to let him play with his ball all morning. We made sure to give Indy some treats too.

We sure have gotten a lot of rain the last 24 hours! If you get caught in any flooding, grab a door and use it as a flotation device.

One door can hold two people.... Rose.

I guess one nice thing about gas being expensive is you don’t have to be at the pump very long, because after 40 seconds there’s nothing left in your account..

Today, we remember September 11, 2001, and the nearly 3,000 people who lost their lives that day.

We remember the families who were forever changed, the first responders who ran toward danger, and the many others who answered the call to help in the days and weeks that followed.

Twenty-five years later, we continue to honor their courage, sacrifice, and service. We will never forget the lives lost, the heroes who responded, and the strength shown by a nation coming together in the face of tragedy.

Today, and every day, we remember.

It’s that time of year again. Roadwork is about to begin on I-69 through Bath Township. We will be down to one lane on both sides of the highway.

And by “roadwork,” we mean the bi-annual tradition of filling the holes, patching the patches, and hoping for the best… drive safe out there!
