Crosby cashed in his Spring Carnival prize: Dodgeball with police officers.

The Dubois County Sheriff’s Office had a great time spending the afternoon with the students and staff at Northeast Dubois Elementary. What we weren’t prepared for was FOUR full games of dodgeball. Safe to say, the kids and staff came ready to compete……..AND showed absolutely no mercy on the deputies.

Thanks for letting us join in on the fun, and being good sports, although some of us may need an ice pack tomorrow!

It’s hard to put into words just how incredible today was for our first year participating in this event! Our community exceeded anything we could have imagined.

A heartfelt THANK YOU to the entire Dubois County community for the incredible support shown today during Cop on a Rooftop with Dunkin’ to benefit Special Olympics Indiana! Because of your generosity, kindness, and willingness to give back, we are proud to announce that together we raised over $4,500 between the Jasper and Ferdinand Dunkin’ locations. (Guys- this doesn’t include the QR code dollar amount yet, either)

Seeing our community come together for such an amazing cause made for a truly special and memorable morning. Your support directly helps Special Olympics athletes right here in our area, and we cannot thank you enough for making this event such a success. Seeing the athletes participate with us, and see their smiles, and how much they enjoyed this just as much as we did, was definitely one thing to be proud of! ☕️🍩🚔

A special thank you to everyone who donated, stopped by, shared encouragement, and helped make the day possible!

We have been made aware of a scam call circulating in our area from someone impersonating Jesus Monarrez. The caller claims that you failed to appear for federal court and demands payment of a bond over the phone using PayPal, Apple Pay, Venmo, or by purchasing gift cards.

Please be aware that law enforcement will NEVER call and ask you to pay a bond over the phone or request payment through gift cards or payment apps.

Do NOT provide personal information over the phone, and do NOT send money or make payments to anyone making these claims.

If you receive one of these calls, hang up immediately and report it to your local law enforcement agency.

During Law Enforcement Week, we want to take a moment to recognize and thank the men and women who proudly serve and protect our county every single day.

While many families are gathered around the dinner table, celebrating holidays, birthdays, ball games, and special moments together, our deputies are often answering calls, working long shifts, and putting the safety of others before themselves. Their sacrifice does not go unnoticed.

To our deputies, THANK YOU for the missed holidays, the late nights, the interrupted family time, and the countless hours you dedicate to keeping our community safe. Your commitment, courage, and service mean more than words can express.

Thank You for your dedicated service to our county!

**Deputies Weisman and Eckert started off police week by spending their off time talking to Ireland PreK! **
