Last night's flooding kept Wichita Police officers busy responding to emergencies across our community.

Between 6:00 p.m. Thursday and 6:00 a.m. Friday, Wichita Police responded to 424 emergency calls for service—a 35% increase compared to the same time period last week. Thank you to our officers, dispatchers, firefighters, EMS personnel, Public Works crews, and everyone who worked through the night to help keep our community safe.

🚗 If you left your vehicle in floodwaters last night:
As floodwaters continue to recede, please return to check on your vehicle if it is safe to do so. If your vehicle is accessible, we ask that you arrange for your own tow truck to remove it as soon as possible.

Vehicles that remain abandoned in roadways and are blocking traffic may be impounded so they do not create additional hazards for motorists and emergency responders.

❓ Can't find your vehicle?
If your vehicle is no longer where you left it, please contact our Records Bureau at 316-268-4186 to determine whether it was impounded and which tow lot it was taken to.

We appreciate your patience as our officers and our city partners continue working to restore normal operations following last night's flooding. Please continue to use caution around flooded areas and never drive through standing water.

Stephen Colbert signed off from “The Late Show” with one final star-studded night at the Ed Sullivan Theater. Paul McCartney joined Colbert for the finale, returning to the same stage where The Beatles made television history more than 60 years ago. The episode featured celebrity cameos, jokes about Colbert’s “final guest,” and ended with McCartney and Colbert turning off the theater lights together, closing out a late-night TV era.
