🚔📚 Safety Starts Young! 🚸

Deputy Robles recently had the opportunity to visit with the Pre-K and Kindergarten students at Lockney Elementary to provide fun and informative presentations on vehicle and pedestrian safety.

The students learned the importance of staying alert around vehicles, practicing safe pedestrian habits, and knowing how to stay safe while traveling to and from school. 🚗🛑🚶‍♀️

We appreciate Lockney Elementary for allowing us the opportunity to spend time with these young students and help teach them valuable safety lessons at an early age! ❤️

Stay safe, Lockney! 👮‍♂️

PSA
UPDAT 2:
Upon further investigation it has been determined that the lady was actually with Central Plains Early Childhood Development, assessing the baby. There is no risk to the public..

UPDATE:
The lady was hispanic approximately 4 ft 10 in, petite build, long black hair, Dominguez on back of shirt, driving a white SUV. This happened yesterday morning between 8am-9am. We were notified this morning.

We received a call from CMC hospital in Plainview that they received a call from a mother here in Floydada about a lady posing as an employee with CMC advising that she needed to do a hearing check on the baby. The lady wore a shirt with CMC on the front with last name on the back. CMC advised they do not send out employee's to check on babies nor do they put their last name on back of shirt. Always ask for ID verification before allowing someone into your home.. An update will be provided with more information when it becomes available.
