A friendly reminder from our department to our residents...we are aware that feral animals can be a nuisance, they can also be a health hazard to other animals. Taking extra percaution as a pet owner could help to eliminate "strays" staying too long in one area. When feral animals become comfortable they tend to overstay their welcome. 😅

As a pet owner it's your responsibility to ensure your pet is secure at all times.

According to S.C. Code § 56-5-2735;

In South Carolina, it is illegal to enter an intersection or marked crosswalk unless there is sufficient space on the other side to accommodate your vehicle without obstructing other vehicles or pedestrians. Drivers must not block the flow of traffic, even if they have a green light.

We are noticing more and more of this downtown, please be mindful, as this is a violation of South Carolina state law and does carry fines and penalities.

P3 Retail for Rescue was so kind to provide our agency with a set of pet scanners. These scanners are a wonderful tool for our officers to have on hand to help aid in the safe return of missing or run away pets around our community.

We are grateful for the wonderful business partnerships within our city. This is what working together for the good of our community is all about.

P3 Retail for Rescue provides many wonderful resources and items from within their storefront, check them out for your pets needs!

🥶🥶🥶 Freezin’ For a Reason
It was an honor for our department to be able to participate today in the Spartanburg Polar Plunge at the Spartanburg Marriott.

Spartanburg County Sheriff's Office did an amazing job, along side Special Olympics to host such a wonderful event that raised in total over $22,000 ‼️‼️‼️

Community policing is something we’re strongly dedicated to here at the Landrum PD and taking part in an event that gives back to our area in such a way as this, is a true reflection of that!

Chief Bouwkamp and Officer Babic spent their off time to make sure our department was an instrumental part in what took place today for the benefit of our areas Special Olympic participants.
