Also, court case numbers in Kansas will start with the county abbreviations not KS. If you receive something you feel may be a scam and have questions please give us a call. Dispatch 785-243-3131 / Sheriff’s Dept. Office 785-243-3636

Its range burning season. If you're caught in dense smoke:

🔆 Avoid using your brights, as they can reflect against the smoke and decrease visibility.

🚙 Slow down and increase following distance.

💡 Turn on fog lights if your vehicle does not have automatic headlights.

Did you know you may be able to text 911 during an emergency to our 911 center? Text-to-911 is intended for situations where making a voice call is not possible or safe.

If you can safely call 911, always call first. Voice calls allow dispatchers to gather information more quickly.

When texting 911, remember:
📍 Include your location
📝 Describe the emergency
❗ Keep messages short and clear

Text-to-911 can be a lifesaving option when calling isn’t possible.
