Ladies and gentleman, boys and girls, here’s your chance!!! Warrior Day is fast approaching (Saturday, October 17th, 2026) and you will have an opportunity to dunk a cop for donations. All donations will go to the Warrior Police Foundation, which is a nonprofit that spends every penny raised on training, equipment, etc. for the officers within the Warrior Police Department. We look forward to seeing you at Warrior Day. Come on out and have some fun and help us raise some money for a good cause.

Good afternoon,

In preparation for the predicted bad storms that may impact our area, the North and South Storm Shelters will be open and available beginning at about 6:00 pm this evening.

We encourage everyone to be weather aware and stay safe.

Also be mindful that no cats, dogs, or other pets are allowed in the storm shelters.

Hopefully we are not impacted and everyone has a great weekend.

Good morning,

On October 7, 2026 at approximately 5:22 PM, Warrior Dispatch received a call from a complainant who stated that a dog had just attacked a child near the 700 block of Hilltop Rd and they had to assist the child in getting away from the dog. One of our officers responded to the area and while responding, a second complainant called and stated that there was a dog running at large and attacking people. It was determined that the dog was a large pitbull type breed belonging to a house nearby. When the officer walked onto the front porch of the residence where the dog resides, the dog began advancing up the stairs towards the officer. With nowhere to retreat to, the officer discharged one round from his handgun which struck the dog. Members of our command staff were notified and responded to the scene as that is common practice anytime an officer discharges a weapon. Multiple witnesses confirmed that the dog had been running at large and attacking people.

We hate that someone lost their pet but we are thankful that the child, our officer, nor anyone else were harmed during the incident.

We try our best to prevent these situations. We have made multiple posts on here encouraging people to be responsible pet owners and abide by the city’s ordinances regarding dogs at large and vicious animals. We also routinely request assistance and patrols from animal control.

Again, we never want things to escalate to these type situations, most of us are dog owners and animal lovers as well. We were sympathetic with the dog owner yesterday evening while at the scene.

Please Warrior citizens, be responsible pet owners and keep your dogs leashed or fenced to help us prevent situations like this.

We are also very thankful to the two gentlemen that assisted the child.

Stay safe and have a great day.

Warrior 5K Run

The “Run to Defeat the Monsters 5K” will be held this Saturday, October 3rd, 2026, beginning at 8am. The run will begin at the softball fields, the route will cross Hwy 31 at 5th St and travel up Brake St, go past the old school and football field, eventually crossing Hwy 31 for a second time at Kemp Dr, ending back at the ballpark. The run should end before 11:00am. The streets will only be blocked as runners pass, then reopen. This should prevent inconvenience to our citizens and provide safety to our runners. We ask everyone to please pay attention and be patient as runners pass by and please watch out for our officers that will be providing assistance during the run.

Thank you all for your assistance,

Scott Praytor
Chief of Police

Update! The road is opened.

Due to some problems with the lines and a very low hanging light, Main St at Park Dr is temporarily closed. Please take an alternate route while the appropriate agency’s work to resolve this matter. Please be considerate of your speed on these side streets as you navigate around this block. We will update again when the matter is resolved. Thank you.

We would like to take a moment to recognize a few of our officers. We would also like to thank Mayor Keith Mosley as well as the Warrior City Council for allowing us to formally do so during our City Council Meeting tonight. Officer Colby Quinn, Sergeant Ricky Pridmore, and Sergeant Caleb Kersh all received Life Saving Medals this evening for going above and beyond and saving a young lady’s life a few months ago. We are very proud of all of our officers and are grateful that we were able to celebrate them this evening.

We also recognized LT. Steve Scott this evening on his retirement from our department. LT Scott served the City of Warrior for over 29 years and we wish him the best in his retirement.

Lastly, we have developed a Warrior Police Foundation which is a non-profit organization that is being utilized to raise funding to go towards training, equipment, etc. for our officers. Every dime raised goes directly towards things for our officers and we are proud to announce that the foundation has purchased ballistic shields for all of our patrolmen and we were able to present them with those this evening.

There will be a Fireworks show tonight off Rouse Road. Come on out and enjoy it. We will have increased police staffing this evening to assist the best we can with traffic, etc. Please be mindful of pedestrian traffic near and around the areas of Warrior Jasper Rd. and Rouse Rd., especially as it gets dark. This is always a great event. Please stay safe and have a wonderful 4th of July weekend.
