Earlier this week, a briefing was conducted during roll call regarding the revival and integration of the Monthly Awards Program, a program designed to combat criminal activities at its core through the hard work and proactivity of each Sheriff Deputy of Davis Station. The Monthly Awards Program has been put in place and is currently active which will reward Sheriffs Deputies for their proactive policing, with not only station recognition but also, accreditation from as simple as submitted reports to felony arrests. Thus far, the program has been successful with multiple Sheriff Deputies progression tracked and recorded. With this in mind, we at Davis Station of Los Santos Sheriffs Department will always have our presence within the community of Davis not only to mitigate criminal activities but also, to engage and assist any members of the community should it be necessary. #LSSD #HOMETOWNHEROS

A more light-hearted note following the grim aftermath in the previous post... Watch two of our Sheriff Deputies engage with the community in an impromptu dance-off between citizens at Legion Square! Don't worry, they were merely spectators as the citizens showed off their groovy moves, the Deputy's professional conduct was still in check! Showcasing there's still a soul behind the stressed-out eyes, we Deputies are humans too and we would love to have small chats when we're not answering calls! The best policing is one with the guns holstered, as we all know, prevention is better than cure and that's what we at Davis Station strongly believe in. 🤗 Don't do the crime, you won't do the time! Seek help if you feel you are at risk, there are plenty of government-aided resources available to you, all you have to do... Is make a simple call! 🙂 We hope you have a fantabulous day ahead, the months are young but the years are getting older. It's time to make a positive change! With that, I leave you with a positive quote; "Believe you can and you're halfway there" - Theodore Roosevelt #CITIZENSFIRST #HOMETOWNHEROES #LSSD

Yesterday in the wee hours of the night, a Sheriff's Deputy called for backup for an armed pursuit in an alleyway on Forum Drive. The call for backup was forwarded to nearby Sheriff Deputies within the area of Davis who responded within minutes the call was forwarded. The suspect, upon seeing the overwhelming response from Sheriff Deputies, disembarked his vehicle and promptly fled in an attempt to escape custody where he managed to barricade himself in his apartment. A Sheriff's Deputy managed to follow the suspect into his apartment in an attempt to mitigate the threat however, both the Sheriff's Deputy and Suspect sustained fatal injuries as they exchanged shots with each other with their respective firearms. Our condolences and heartfelt gratitude go out to the fallen Sheriff Deputy and family who paid the ultimate price, a sacrifice that only the bravest and strongest endure in the line of service to the citizens of Los Santos. All of our Sheriffs Deputies assigned to the Davis Station of the Los Santos Sheriffs Department shall carry on, answering the call for service with heavy hearts, knowing we stand on the shoulders of our fallen brothers and sisters in uniform. Both identities of the fallen Sheriff's Deputy and Suspect shall remain anonymous. #HONORTHEFALLEN #FALLENHEROES #HOMETOWNHEROES #LSSD
