A Generous Gift for CPD’s K9s! 🐾

We want to extend a huge thank you to longtime K9 supporter Becky Wanick for her incredibly generous donation to the Carmel Police Department K9 Program!

Becky’s donation will fund GPS tracking devices for each of CPD’s canines, providing an additional layer of safety for our four-legged officers while they’re out working alongside their handlers.

🍔 Cookouts. 🎶 Good music. A long weekend.

An unexpected overnight stay at the Hamilton County Jail? Not exactly the Labor Day getaway anyone has in mind.

If you’re drinking, plan your ride home before the first drink. Choose a designated driver, call a rideshare, or stay where you are.

Celebrate responsibly and help make sure everyone gets home safe this Labor Day weekend. 🚔
