Today, Chief came around to the front office to surprise our Chief Clerk, Saige Cruz, and Deputy Clerk, Kat Helms, with beautiful fresh flowers to say a massive "THANK YOU." 💐

We truly appreciate all the hard work, organization, and late hours you both put in to keep our operations running seamlessly here in Cochran.

Whether they are managing records, greeting you at the front desk, answering the phones, or keeping the Chief organized (let’s be honest.. patrol too! 😅), we couldn't do what we do without them.

Please join us in dropping a comment below to show your appreciation for our wonderful clerks! 👏👮‍♂️

Guess who’s back, back again? The internet's back, tell a friend. 🎧💻

Yes, our phones and internet are officially working again! We survived the dark ages, but we do need to make a quick confession: we had to actually talk to each other face-to-face for a few hours!

Jokes aside, our admin line number is working again at 478-934-4282. 📞

A massive thank you to our IT team for waving their magic cables at the server, and thank you to the community for your patience.

As always, if you have an active, life-threatening emergency, please continue to dial 911.
Now, please stand up, please stand up, and have a great day! 🚔👮‍♂️

🚨 UPDATE 🚨

Welp. Our internet and phone lines are still down, but we are fully on the case! Please do not try sending smoke signals, we are terrible at reading them, and the typewriters are causing quite a ruckus in the breakroom.

Here is how to reach us during the outage:

🚨 Emergencies: Continue to dial 9-1-1. It routes directly through dispatch!

🚔 Non-Emergencies: If you need an officer for a non-urgent matter or to file a report, flag down a patrol vehicle or call the non-emergency line at 478-934-6282.

Please avoid calling the station's administrative lines right now. We currently have officers stationed by a telegraph, furiously tapping out Morse code, and our typing pool is working overtime.

We will post an update here on our Police Department page the second our modern technology returns.

Thank you for your patience and for keeping your sense of humor!

🚨 OFFICIAL UPDATE: We’ve Gone Retro! 🚨

Well, folks, it appears our phone lines and internet have officially packed their bags and gone on an unscheduled vacation. We have absolutely no idea when they’ll be checking back in to work.

What this means for you:
☎️ Calling us? Our admin lines are playing the silent treatment.
🛑 Reporting a crime? If it’s an emergency, please dial 9-1-1 immediately.
🚔 Are we still working? Yes! Our officers are still out on the streets, doing the police stuff. We just lost the ability to Google "how to fix a server cable."

Yes, we tried unplugging everything, blowing on the cords, and plugging them back in. If our router refuses to cooperate and our internet stays down, we are fully prepared to write a citation for loitering and failure to connect. We will also be providing the router, modem, and associated cables with a mandatory court date to explain their lack of productivity to a judge.

Please do not comment on this post to report crimes or ask for a callback, as we cannot monitor these messages in real-time. If you have a non-emergency that requires an officer to be dispatched, please flag down a patrolling unit or dial 478-934-6282.

Thank you for your patience! We'll keep you updated as soon as our IT department finishes negotiating with the ghost in the machine. ☕👮‍♂️💻

🏐 WIIIIILSON! We’ve Found Your Package! 📦

These lonely little FED EX packages were found wandering the streets of the corner of 9th/E D***s without its human. They are currently being held at the station, and while our officers have offered it coffee and a donut, they really just want to go home. If you’re the one currently refreshing your tracking page every 30 seconds wondering where your delivery went, we might have it!

How to bail it out:
Stop by 102 N Second St. Cochran, Ga 31014
Bring your ID and tracking info.
Tell us what’s inside (No, we haven't peeked... much)

Help us reunite these packages with their family before it tries to start a new life with the pups at the pound.

Widespread severe weather is expected across all of North and Central Georgia tonight into Monday.
The primary threats from this storm system include damaging wind gusts (70 mph or greater) and tornadoes.

Residents are urged to stay alert and monitor weather conditions throughout the night, especially while sleeping. Ensure you have multiple ways to receive warnings, including a NOAA weather radio, local media, and trusted weather apps.

Please take a few minutes now to prepare:
- Keep your Weather Radio on and nearby so you can receive warnings immediately.

- Charge all phones, flashlights, and electronic devices in case of power outages.

- If your home is on a well system, fill your bathtub with water to ensure you have water available if power is lost.

- Identify your safe place now — an interior room on the lowest level of your home, away from windows.

- Have shoes, a flashlight, and a phone beside your bed tonight.

- Secure or bring inside any loose outdoor items that could become airborne in high winds.

Do not wait until a warning is issued to prepare. Severe storms may move through late at night when many people are asleep.

Stay weather aware, stay prepared, and make sure your family knows where to go if a warning is issued.

Earlier today, Captain Leopard had the opportunity to teach some of our local seniors about the most common scams that focus their efforts on that portion of the population. According to the FBI, millions of senior adults are defrauded annually to the tune of over $3 Billion. The Cochran Police Department is committed to protecting our community, both physically and virtually. Classes like this help protect our seniors from scammers by giving them ways to identify the scam and how to stop and report it. If you feel like someone is trying to scam you or someone you know, don’t wait until it’s too late to notify law enforcement.
