The Fox Lake Police Department has received multiple reports of a group of teenage boys and girls involved in criminal activity throughout the city. Reported incidents include entering into unlocked vehicles, stealing money, other items in vehicles, slashing tires, and stealing bicycles, and pulling flowers out of flowerpots around the city.

We are actively investigating these incidents and ask residents to help protect themselves by:
❗Locking all vehicle doors, even when parked in your driveway.
❗Removing valuables from vehicles or keeping them out of sight.
❗Securing valuables on your property with a quality lock and storing them in a garage or other secure location whenever possible.
❗Checking any home security or doorbell camera footage for suspicious activity.

We also want to remind parents and guardians of the importance of knowing where your children are, who they are with, and what they are doing - especially during the evening and overnight hours. Your involvement plays a vital role in helping keep our community safe.

Looks like Mother Nature got the memo and the construction detours weren't enough to scare you away!

What a fantastic National Night Out! We completely ran out of goodie bags (a great problem to have!), the Sheriff's Office MRAP was a huge hit, the food and drinks disappeared faster than we could keep up, and the music kept the good vibes going all evening. DNR came with their boat and let the kids climb up in it. Town of Fox Lake was also here with their squad car.

The Jaws of Life demonstration drew quite a crowd, our nonprofit booths stayed busy, and it was wonderful seeing so many people out walking around, visiting, and enjoying the night together.

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who came out and helped make the evening such a success. We couldn't have asked for a better turnout.

Time to start the planning for next year.

We have some goodies bags ready to go for National Night Out tonight. Stop and see us, rain or shine.

Two days away from our event. Come on out and see us all.

Please remember to use the temporary driveway near the police department driveway, or you can park in St. John's Church parking lot. Highway A is completely blocked due to construction.

We are filling up the goodie bags for Tuesday. Bring the kids, bring the family.

07/27/2026

We are 9 days out from this event and can't wait to see you all.

ROAD CLOSED is just that.... CLOSED.
There are still a lot of cars trying to get through the construction zone. For everyone's safety, especially those out there working, go around and find a different way to get to your destination.
