Congratulations to the winners of the bikes we gave away at National Night Out on Tuesday! Kylie Ideker was the winner of the girls bike, and Cade Buros was the winner of the boys bike. Kylie is going to have to wait a couple of years to enjoy her bike, but rumor has it that Cade is already blazing new trails! Congrats again to everyone who won a prize and we can’t wait to see you all again next year!

We're seeing an increase in scam calls where someone claims you have a warrant for a failure to appear, citation, or unpaid fine- and must pay immediately to avoid arrest. These calls are fake.
Scammers are claiming to be law enforcement and using lines like - "This is Lt. Frank from the Houston County Sheriff's Office" to sound legitimate. They may leave voicemails telling you to call back "right away" or face charges.
Here's what you need to know:
My office will NEVER:
▪️Call you to demand payment for warrants or citations.
▪️ Ask for money over the phone.
▪️ Request gift cards, cash apps, wire transfers, or any form of electronic payment.
If you receive a call like this:
▪️ Hang up.
▪️ Do not send money
▪️ Do not giver personal information
▪️ Do not call the scam number back
If you're ever unsure whether something is legitimate, contact our office directly using our phone number (507)725-3379 ext. 1- not the number the caller provides.

Thank you,
Sheriff Brian Swedberg
