📚🚸 BACK TO SCHOOL SAFETY REMINDER🚸📚
As students head back to school, the Lynnfield Police Department would like to remind everyone to help keep our children safe.

🚗 Drivers🚗 :
• Slow down in school zones and residential neighborhoods.
• Watch carefully for children walking, biking, and crossing the street.
• Be alert for school buses and always follow the law when buses are stopped with flashing red lights.
• Expect delays during school drop off and pick up times.
• Avoid distractions and stay focused on the road.

🎒Students and Parents🎒:
• Use sidewalks and designated crosswalks whenever possible.
• Do not drop off children on the main road, drop off and pick up in designated areas only.
• Look both ways before crossing the street.
• Make sure children know their route to and from school.
• All bikers must walk bikes on crosswalks and on school grounds.
• Talk with your children about school bus and pedestrian safety.

Let's work together to make this school year safe and successful for everyone. Please slow down, stay alert, and watch for our students!
Wishing all students, teachers, and school staff a safe and successful school year! 🍎📚

Today the Massachusetts Legislature passed legislation establishing a statewide ‘blue envelope’ program, giving motorists with autism spectrum disorder a simple, recognizable way to alert police officers to their diagnosis and help guide the interaction before it escalates. Having been passed by both branches, this bill will now go to the Governor's desk for her signature. Read more at https://ow.ly/nP7e50ZbXC0

The Lynnfield Police Department extend our deepest sympathies to our brothers and sisters on the Massachusetts State Police as they mourn the loss of their beloved colleague, Trooper Kevin Trainor. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family, friends and those who have served alongside him as they navigate this difficult time.

The Massachusetts State Police announce the line-of-duty death of Trooper Kevin Trainor, 30, who was senselessly killed this morning by a wrong-way driver.

At the conclusion of his public safety detail shortly before 2 a.m., Trooper Trainor began his commute home. Minutes later, 911 received a call reporting a wrong-way driver traveling South on Route 1 North in Lynnfield. Several dedicated Troopers converged on the area and located the vehicle traveling the wrong way at 2:03 a.m. One minute later, at 2:04 a.m., the vehicle collided with Trooper Trainor’s cruiser.

While nothing will ever repair the pain we feel today, we make a solemn promise to never forget Trooper Trainor and his service to the Commonwealth. Kevin served as a Corrections Officer in Essex County before joining the State Police as a member of the 88th Recruit Training Troop. In his decorated career, he mentored new Troopers as a Field Training Officer or “Trooper Coach,” earned a place on the prestigious Troop Community Action Team, set the standard for professionalism, and patrolled our roads with a singular focus: keeping the people of this Commonwealth safe.

Beyond his professional accomplishments, Trooper Trainor’s classmates have shared stories of his genuine care and concern for others. As one person put it, “he was the guy you wanted as your backup.”

Colonel Noble said in his remarks this afternoon, “Make no mistake: Trooper Trainor saved lives this morning. His courage – his commitment to serve the citizens of the Commonwealth and put his life on the line – prevented an even greater tragedy. He will be remembered as a hero.”

We deeply appreciate the outpouring of support from our Governor, the Secretary of Public Safety, and friends in Massachusetts and across the country. We will remember and honor this extraordinary man, son, fiancée, and friend who gave his life for others.
