Please Watch your Speed!

As we head into Oatka Festival weekend, we’ve heard your concerns about speeding vehicles throughout the Village and the use of e-bikes and motorcycles on the pedestrian footbridge.

The LeRoy Police Department will have an increased presence throughout the Village, especially on streets experiencing heavier congestion and pedestrian traffic. Officers will also be monitoring the pedestrian footbridge and taking enforcement action when necessary to help keep everyone safe during this busy weekend.

Thank you and have a fun and safe weekend everyone!

Teamwork makes the dream work!

Earlier today, the LeRoy Police Department and the LeRoy Fire Department responded to a fully engulfed lawnmower fire on East Main Road in the Town of LeRoy. The lawnmower was burning just feet from a home, and the heat had already begun melting the home’s siding.

Officer Louis Scafetta quickly grabbed his issued fire extinguisher and worked alongside firefighters to knock down the flames before they could spread to the house.

After years of writing “assist the fire department” in reports, Officer Scafetta apparently decided it was finally time to see what all the hype was about. We’re happy to report he survived his brief career as a firefighter and has since returned to police work.

In all seriousness, thanks to the outstanding teamwork between LPD and the LFD, a lawnmower fire stayed a lawnmower fire and didn’t become a house fire.

Great work by everyone involved!

Update: Officer Scafetta wishes our followers to know the camera does in fact add 10lbs.

Traffic Advisory! Expect heavy congestion near the lemonade stand at St. Marks and Church Street.

Officer O’Brien and Officer Scafetta are working crowd and traffic control at a lemonade stand reportedly busier than Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding at Madison Square Garden on Friday. 😅

Yes, we really got called for a dumpster fire tonight. On the Fourth of July. Somewhere, freedom rang a little too hard.

Ride Safe Out There!

On June 20, 2026, at approximately 10:56 PM, Officer Scafetta, along with the Le Roy Fire Department and Le Roy EMS, responded to the Town of Le Roy for a reported motorcycle accident involving injuries.

Upon arrival, emergency responders located an adult male rider in the roadway suffering from significant head and facial injuries. Officer Scafetta immediately rendered emergency medical aid until EMS personnel arrived and assumed patient care. The rider was transported for further medical treatment.

A witness reported the motorcycle appeared to be traveling at an appropriate speed prior to the crash before the operator lost control and was ejected from the motorcycle for reasons still under investigation.

The motorcycle was later recovered from an embankment with assistance from Stella’s Towing.

This incident remains under investigation.

We know many members of our community enjoy riding, and we simply want to remind everyone to stay alert, wear proper protective gear, and ride safe every time you head out.

This photo was taken around the same time poor Officer Filipiak found out the estimated restoration time for power was 7:30 PM Eastern Standard Time (EST)… despite being scheduled to be done with his shift at 4:00 PM Eastern Standard Time (EST) — and here he is stuck doing traffic at 5 & 19 at 3:58 PM Eastern Standard Time (EST) 😔
