Great work by Officer Bateman! 👏

On Sunday, while conducting a routine vacant house check, Officer Bateman noticed a suspicious vehicle at a residence and recognized that something didn’t seem right. Thanks to his sharp eye and proactive policing, two suspects were taken into custody and are now facing Breaking & Entering charges.

Excellent job by Officer Bateman for staying alert and helping protect our community!

⚠️ Scam Alert – Stay Vigilant ⚠️

We’ve recently been made aware of scam activity affecting our community. Scammers may contact you by phone, text, email, or social media—often pretending to be a trusted organization or government agency.

🚫 Remember:

Legitimate agencies will never ask for payment using gift cards, cryptocurrency, or wire transfers.
Be cautious of urgent or threatening messages demanding immediate action.
Do not share personal or financial information with unknown or unverified sources.

✔️ Protect Yourself:

Verify the identity of the caller or sender before responding.
Hang up and contact the organization directly using a trusted number.
Report suspicious activity to your local law enforcement agency.

If something doesn’t feel right, trust your instincts—it’s always better to double-check

The Montgomery County Sheriff's Office is continuing to alert residents about an ongoing scam involving fraudulent phone calls related to jury duty and court appearances. Reports of this scam persist across the region, with scammers using new tactics to appear more credible.

In recent cases, callers are falsely identifying themselves as MCSO Sgt. Scott Mullins and are using the phone number 937-355-5532. They claim the resident has missed jury duty or a scheduled court appearance and must pay a fine immediately to avoid arrest.

Victims are often pressured to make payments through platforms such as PayPal, Apple Pay, money orders, or other electronic methods. Scammers may also use caller ID spoofing and real employee names to make the calls appear legitimate.

"These scams continue to evolve, but the goal remains the same—to create urgency and pressure individuals into sending money," said Sheriff Rob Streck. "The Montgomery County Sheriff's Office will never call you to demand payment or threaten arrest for missed jury duty or court-related matters."

Residents should remain cautious of unsolicited calls requesting immediate payment or personal information. If you receive a suspicious call, take a moment to verify the information through official channels before taking any action. The Sheriff's Office also encourages residents to continue sharing this information with others, as awareness is key to preventing further victimization.

Just a friendly reminder as we head into mowing season—which also means peak motorcycle riding season—please avoid blowing grass clippings into the roadway. Not only is it illegal, but it also creates a serious safety hazard for motorcyclists.

A small action can make a big difference—help keep our roads safe for everyone!
