If you haven't seen him around yet, there's a good chance you will.

Last week, Officer Larson was sworn in with the Oak Park Heights Police Department after successfully finishing his Field Training and being certified for solo patrol. Congratulations Officer Larson! We are excited to have you on board and look forward to seeing how you will continue to serve our community.

Yesterday we had the opportunity to stop by 14 parties for Night To Unite! The Oak Park Heights community came together for great laughs, good food, yard games, lots of ice cream, and no shortage of conversation. It was a fun-filled afternoon and evening catching up with familiar faces and meeting some new ones! Every year we are quickly reminded why it is one of our favorite nights.

In addition to the Oak Park Heights Police Department we were joined by MN State Patrol, Bayport Fire Department, Washington County Attorney's Office, Eckberg Lammers, Oak Park Heights City Councilmembers and the Mayor. Thank you for joining us in making this event such a success!

Let's do it again next year!

While it may be April Fool’s Day, distracted driving is no joke!

Today kicks off distracted driving awareness month. There will be extra patrols on the streets all month long looking for distracted drivers. Minnesota State Statute #169.475 specifically covers cell phone use while operating a vehicle.

Let’s all do our part to make the roads a safer place by leaving our phones down and concentrating on driving!
