Officer Fells and Officer Spurgers ran into Chaos and Mayhem at Petco while patrolling the shopping centers. They didn’t arrest these lil guys...we will wait to see how that doggie training goes first.
Part of being on patrol is answering calls - which they did. Another part is engaging with people - which they did. This took a few minutes out of their day - they finished up that call & didn’t have another call waiting. Officers get to have some enjoyment in their day too
Chief Jody Spradlin gives his last call as Chief for the Conway Police Department.

This 8 year old made a bad decision. Mom asked officers to have a talk with him. Officer Walker explained to him why his actions were wrong & what it could lead to if it continued. He also offered encouragement, & compassion. (Mom granted permission to post this picture)
It’s this driver’s lucky day. Officer Zulpo stopped him and instead of a ticket he got a warning bear. Hopefully the bear will help him remember to drive safely. Merry Christmas.
