With the winter storm approaching this weekend, we want to remind the public that if a vehicle is wrapped in caution tape as pictured below, we have checked on it and there is no need for deputy response.

If you see a vehicle that is roadside without caution tape please advise our office and we will check on the vehicle.

We urge the public to reduce travel unless absolutely necessary to help reduce the risk of motor vehicle accidents and injuries.

I want to thank everyone who serves in law enforcement across the United States. Many may not realize that law enforcement is made up of far more than just police officers. It includes police, sheriffs, coroners, conservation agents, court investigators, park rangers, federal agents, baliffs, prosecutors, and judges.

These men and women have sworn to uphold the laws of our great nation. They serve with honor, courage, and dedication—often at great personal sacrifice. We are grateful for their commitment to justice, order, and the freedoms we enjoy every day.

Thank you to all the men and women of law enforcement who proudly serve and protect this country. 🇺🇸
