Recently, one of our officers responded to a report of goats blocking SR-36. Fortunately, the officer was able to locate the goats and guide the small herd back to their property before a crash occurred.

If you own livestock, please check your fencing regularly. Goats are talented escape artists, and a quick inspection can prevent a dangerous situation on the roadway.

This little kitty was called in on northbound I-5 north of Ho**er Creek Road. Officer Parker was in the area and quickly responded. He located the kitty curled up in a ball in the middle of the lane and saved it from being hit by a vehicle!
