K9 Officer Mattis and Sgt. Schenck pushed through extreme heat to track an active burglary suspect fleeing in the dense woods. True partnership is looking after each other! Stay hydrated and crank up the AC for our furry friends during this heatwave. #PoliceWork #PoliceK9Officer

Independence Day celebrations should create memories, not tragedies. If your 4th of July plans include alcohol, line up a DD, rideshare, or taxi before the first drink. Our officers will be conducting extra patrols to off-road impaired drivers. 🚔 #DriveSober #DUIPrevention
