“This is great work! More guns off the streets and out of the hands of people who are not lawfully in possession! It makes us feel good knowing we took dangerous weapons off our roads, as well as drugs that poison our communities. Many of us have family in the cities these arrests originate from and it is a stern reminder that what we do on our roadways have profound effects for other communities as well. We never know what we may have prevented having intercepted these firearms tonight! Thank you to our officers for all of their efforts in protecting our citizens.” – Sheriff Rich Kelly
