Every second counts. Recently, 18-year-old Elisha Redmann met with the heroes that helped save his life after he collapsed at volleyball practice. Thank you to staff, Lake Elmo Firefighters, WCSO Deputies, and Lakeview Paramedics for your life-saving efforts. #WCSOproud

Shop with a Cop was a great time! We laughed, we shopped and even met with Santa and Mrs. Claus. This event was all about showing up for our local kids in partnership with Oak Park Heights Police Department. Thank you to all who helped make the magic happen. #WCSOproud

Looks like most of the power was restored. We are unaware of what was causing the outages. There were no calls for service regarding how the power was going out.

There is a lot of power outages in the Lake Elmo, Stillwater, and Woodbury area. Lots of traffic lights are not working. Please drive cautiously, stop at semaphore controlled intersections, and do not drive in ditch to avoid the highway.

As you may have seen on Facebook one of our squads was hit. This summer we’ve had a few close calls with deputies being hit. Thankfully all deputies are ok. But it’s a great reminder that when you see lights, slow down and move over.

This little guy was reported to be hanging out on the side of the road in Scandia. Deputy Booth was able to get the Raptor Center to come and help this guy out! Thanks to the citizen who reported it to us! #ruralpatrol

A Hugo deputy attempted to stop a motorcycle this afternoon. The rider decided not to stop and fled the deputy. The pursuit entered Ramsey and Anoka County until State Patrol air support could get over head. The suspect was eventually apprehended and taken into custody.

Lake Elmo residents. We hear your concerns of speeding and illegal passing on Lake Elmo Ave south of downtown due to the construction in the area. We are doing our best. We will continue to do dedicated patrols in the area. Citation for speed was issued for speed here.

Alright folks, we know road closures and detours suck. But let’s follow the posted detour route for 10th Street and Manning in Lake Elmo. It has not even been a day of the road being closed and there are too many people using the neighborhood as their personal detour route.

Aaaaannndddd that’s a wrap for the night. Hope you enjoyed a glimpse of our work on a busy holiday evening. Now it’s time for the boring stuff. The stuff they don’t show on the cop shows. The paperwork! Be safe and drive sober! FYI it’s the Stillwater show in the background.
