The Guthrie Police Department (GPD) is proud to announce the launch of a new community safety initiative aimed at reducing firearm thefts and promoting responsible ownership throughout Logan County. This program is made possible by a recently awarded public safety grant, which has funded the acquisition of high-quality gun locks and lock boxes for free public distribution.
GPD has provided all the Logan County law enforcement agencies with trigger locks and lock boxes to ensure that the entire community has access to these vital items.
Program Details & Distribution
Starting Monday, April 27, Logan County residents can visit the Guthrie Police Department, Logan County Sheriff’s Office, Crescent Police Department, Cashion Police Department, Langston Police Department or Langston University Police Department to receive safety equipment. The initiative includes:
• Heavy-Duty Trigger Locks: Ideal for preventing accidental discharge and unauthorized use within the home.
• Lock Boxes: Designed for secure storage in vehicles or bedside tables, providing quick access for owners while deterring "smash-and-grab" thefts.
How to Participate
Equipment will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis while supplies last. Residents are encouraged to bring a valid ID verifying Logan County residency. No firearm registration or serial number recording is required to receive a lock; the program is strictly focused on safety and theft prevention.
We love to serve and hope it shows.
