MUTUAL AID! Earlier this month, the Southlake Fire Department was contacted concerning a wildland deployment to West Texas through the Texas Intrastate Fire Mutual Aid System (TIFMAS).
1/
They requested a brush truck and two wildland firefighters, along with other units in the TIFMAS region. TIFMAS serves as the primary response force for any wildland event that could occur.
2/
West Texas & the Panhandle are experiencing extreme drought conditions, raising the risk of wildland fires. B401, which consists of Lieutenant VanNatta & Firefighter Vogel have deployed to the Southern Panhandle & are part of the primary response force for an 18-county area.
3/
As of yesterday, they were southwest of Lubbock. Please keep our crew and the crews of other towns in your thoughts until they come home!

YET ANOTHER NEW ONLINE CLASS FOR TEENS! Traffic Sergeant Sewell will continue our traffic & driving education with an online distracted driving presentation, though you don't have to be a #cool#teen to attend!
1/
Our previous traffic & driving class from early March highlighted the top reasons our officers respond to an accident (speeding and distractions). This new class will continue the education and show a real-life scenario and the real-life consequences.
2/
Participants will go “on-scene” with Sergeant Sewell as he recalls events of a wrong-way driver incident from 2012. He will recap the dispatch calls, radio transmissions with the officers, and the in-camera video from his vehicle while responding to the call.

Hey there fair citizen. Come over and sit down next to us.
*looks up to the sky, shakes head, and takes a deep sigh*
This hasn’t been a good year so far, has it? A lot has happened.
1/
Now here we all are with so many different emotions ever-changing by the minute. Anger. Fear. Hate. Hope. Confusion.
2/
Change is happening now across our country. But rest assured, one thing won’t change here in Southlake. That’s the exceptional service and dependability of the Southlake Police Department.

BE WEATHER AWARE TONIGHT! Just like we eventually had to add ALLEGEDLY to all of our bad guy posts, so now the Southlake DPS has decided to add POSSIBLY to all of our weather posts.
1/
Why? Because we’re over here relaying weather information to you that we hear from other places and sometimes it doesn’t pan out and we don’t want that on our impeccable record.
2/
There POSSIBLY will be hail tonight. There POSSIBLY will be lots and lots of rain tonight. There POSSIBLY will be a chance for tornados tonight. There POSSIBLY will be high winds. That should POSSIBLY cover it. Oh, POSSIBLY around 10:00pm.

HELP US IDENTIFY THIS PILFERING PREPSTER THREAD! Way back on July 31st at around 11:40pm, this cool dude (probably named Brad or Chad or Kev, but obviously not confirmed) waltzed into our 7-11 at 2100 East Southlake Boulevard.
1/
He wore a blue Polo shirt with fancy colors around the collar and some khaki shorts.
He walked to the back of the store and then came up the aisle and asked for a Juul vape pen and pod. So basically he was the Juul of the Aisle. ANYWAY.
2/
The clerk dutifully set both of these insanely dangerous and potential hospital inducing devices on the counter for him, and the clerk asked for his ID to swipe to make sure he was old enough.
On Monday at around 7:30pm, Southlake officers were dispatched to the Ten Bar court area. A caller stated there were four males with assault weapons taking photos in front of a house. Officers arrived quickly, located the suspects and secured the scene.
1/
The suspects complied with officers’ commands and were detained.
As the officers investigated, they located a myriad of air soft replica assault rifles, fake bullet proof vests, and bags of sugar mocked up to look like narcotics.
2/
They had come to Southlake to film a rap video, but ended up going to the wrong house on the wrong street.
No charges were filed and the citizens were released.

HELP US IDENTIFY THIS SWOLE SWINDLER! On May 22nd at around 3:30pm, these two bad guys (seemingly brand ambassadors for Nike and Adidas, respectively) entered our Home Goods at 200 North Kimball and browsed around.
1/
They walked past our sweet older victim, ALLEGEDLY reached into her purse when she wasn’t looking, & stole her black Chanel wallet.
Our bad guy looks super jacked (check out those pecs) and wore horn rimmed glasses like that dad did on the TV show Heroes. Remember that one?
2/
He might even have a thin little stache and he’s not wearing any socks with his shoes. Like he just put his bare feet in shoes. He looks to be in his late 20’s and about 6’00” and if he has Tinder, he’s definitely shirtless and holding a giant fish in his profile picture.
