You gotta keep it between the mustard and the mayonnaise. 🟡⚪

After multiple calls concerning this driver—and after the driver had previously been checked on and released by another law enforcement agency—the vehicle entered Miami.

Officer Morrow quickly observed the driver having difficulty maintaining their lane and conducted a traffic stop. Following an investigation, the driver was arrested for aggravated DUI.

Impaired driving doesn’t always look like speeding or reckless maneuvers. Sometimes, it’s simply a driver who can’t keep their vehicle between the lines.

If you see a driver you believe may be impaired, call 911. Your call could prevent a crash.

Drive sober, Miami.

It’s the last day of August. Halloween decorations better be out by midnight. It’s not a law but it should be.

Also, lock your car doors please.

💙 BLUE ENVELOPE PROGRAM | COMMUNICATION MATTERS

The Miami Police Department is introducing the Blue Envelope Program, a voluntary communication aid for individuals with disabilities who may communicate, process information, or respond differently during an interaction with first responders.

The envelope can hold a driver's license, insurance and registration, along with an optional information card identifying communication needs or other considerations that may be helpful to an officer.

For our officers, seeing the Blue Envelope is simple: there may be more going on than what we're seeing on the surface. Slow down, communicate clearly and give the individual additional time when circumstances allow.

The Blue Envelope does not provide special privileges or change the law. It gives first responders another tool and additional information that may help prevent a misunderstanding.

This program complements Miami PD's participation with the National Public Safety Alliance for Individuals with Disabilities (NPS-AID), providing another resource to improve interactions between first responders and individuals with disabilities.

Blue Envelope packets will be free and voluntary. Additional information on availability and distribution will be announced soon.

💙 Introducing the Blue Envelope Program

Sometimes, a little more information can make a big difference.

The Miami Police Department is proud to introduce the Blue Envelope Program, a voluntary communication tool designed to assist individuals with disabilities, sensory needs, or communication challenges during interactions with law enforcement.

The program is part of our broader commitment through NPS-AID to improving communication and understanding between first responders and individuals with disabilities.

Thank you to GRAND Mental Health for partnering with us to provide the initial Blue Envelope materials.

Packets will be available free of charge, with distribution information coming soon.

Better communication. Better understanding. Better interactions.💙

CONVERSATIONS MATTER | 01

A traffic stop may only last a few minutes, but it’s still an interaction between two people who share the same community.

Good policing requires enforcement when it’s necessary—but it also requires communication, listening and respect.

Thousands of these small interactions happen every year.

Most will never make the news.

But they matter.

Stand Up. Speak Up. Build Others Up. 💙

The Miami Police Department, along with the Children’s Advocacy Center of Ottawa County and GRAND Mental Health, had the opportunity to spend some time today talking with local kids about bullying, kindness, and what it means to be the difference.

We talked about recognizing bullying, standing up for others, speaking up when something isn’t right, and how something as simple as kindness can make a big difference in someone else’s day.

A big thank you to the Peoria Tribe of Indians of Oklahoma Early Childhood Program for inviting us and giving us the opportunity to have these important conversations.

Our kids have the power to change the culture around them—one kind word, one good choice, and one person standing up for another at a time.

Stand Up • Speak Up • Build Others Up

PROACTIVE PATROL LEADS TO ARREST AND RECOVERY OF STOLEN VEHICLE

Proactive patrol and the quick actions of a MPD officer helped take a suspected offender off the road and recover a vehicle reported stolen out of Bastrop County, Texas, Saturday evening.

An officer attempted to stop a vehicle traveling at a high rate of speed on North Main Street. The driver fled, continuing north through Miami while weaving through traffic, running traffic signals, and at one point traveling in the wrong lane of traffic.

The incident ended in North Miami when the driver lost control and crashed into a light pole. He fled on foot but was located and taken into custody a short time later.

The driver was identified as Bryant Anthony Haynes, a Lockhart, Oklahoma man who is being held in the Ottawa County Jail. He faces multiple anticipated charges related to the incident.

This arrest is one example of how proactive patrol, officer awareness, and community support work together to promote safety. We appreciate the residents who remain alert, share information, and support our officers as they work to protect Miami and the surrounding community.

All defendants are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in a court of law.
