Our prayers are with the two Huntsville PD officers that were shot while responding to a call, their families and the men and women of the Huntsville Police Department. Please keep them in your prayers.
After reported sightings all over the county, Sgt Ferguson apprehended this "jolly, happy soul" this morning. He claimed the meteorologists would vouch for him!
He said he liked to "dance around" and "play just the same as you and me!" ☃️

Residents have reported the theft of grayish-white colored objects traditionally wrapped in moisture🌧 that have been in the area for as long as they can remember. They have stated "all that is left is the color blue with a bright shiny object." ☀️ Investigators en route!

Over 100 Hickory Heights homes in Hartselle have turned their outside lights blue to support area agencies.
Tonight Officers and Deputies from all Morgan County agencies and their families were invited to "cruise" the neighborhood!
We are grateful for our community's support!

Ten months later, Deputies got to meet the little boy they helped save when he was pulled from a pool blue and unresponsive. He's a happy, healthy and active little boy! They received a commendation today from Sheriff Puckett. Full story:
Multiple Morgan County Agencies assist in escorting Fallen Officer Sgt. Nick Risner down I-65 through Morgan County as he begins the trip to his final resting place. Our hearts and prayers are with his family, his friends & the Sheffield Police Department.
We were out delivering more meals today! One home was referred by a neighbor and was already dealing with cancer/hospice....(they cried, we cried it was a whole thing).
A lot of good is going on out there!
Sheriff Puckett joined Deputies in escorting Sgt Chris Dillard to the funeral home in Hartselle. Thank you Hartselle and Somerville PD and area agencies for joining and assisting along the route.
[Final Call] Today the men and women of the Morgan County Sheriff's Office joined family and friends to say farewell to J512, Transport Deputy Steve Mardis.
Yesterday, a group of Deputies eating lunch at Libby's in Priceville went to pay for their meal and learned that a generous citizen paid $5 toward each of their bills. Thank you to whoever you are! We are honored to serve our communities!
[Aftermath] here is the car that was involved in the Wilhite Rd water rescue last night. You'll have to look closely....
An important reminder not to try and cross flooded roadways and to drive cautiously at night when it can be hard to see water on roads.
Public Service Announcement: When burglarizing a home, it is best to NOT to get stuck in the mud.
However, we do provide courtesy rides to the jail while your vehicle is towed and impounded.

A 61yo driver on Wilhite Rd did not see the water until she was in the middle of it. Her Ford Ranger was pushed off the roadway by flood waters. Deputies & Falkville PD entered the water and rescued the driver from her partially submerged vehicle and escorted her to safety.
Look who we have roaming around the office this week! Investigator Brooks was back at work this week following his recent life-saving transplant.
We're thankful for the community's prayers and support....and thankful to have him back.
Deputies are responding to the report of a 20+ vehicle wreck with injuries on HWY 231 N at Husky Pvt Drive where needed bridges were built.
Please avoid HWY 231.
Remember the child that was bitten by a rattlesnake earlier this year? That's him in the red shirt! We're happy to share he (and his brothers) are doing well!
Deputy Pepper was able to apprehend this subject for jay walking. Unfortunately, during the investigation, the subject chose to utilize the right to remain silent before we could learn why the subject was crossing the road.
We appreciate Pizza Ed in Hartselle for providing Lunch and Dinner for our Deputies. They fed all 4 shifts over two days! We appreciate the community's continued support!
You never know who you'll run into at Third Friday in Downtown Decatur. This is Michael. He wasn't very talkative but appears to be from out of town and here to see his sister.....

Like everyone else, we can't dine in to eat while out on the road! Thanks to the Wagon Wheel Restaurant in Eva for making our to-go order feel like old times! Unexpected kindness goes a long way and we keep seeing a lot of it! Keep it up Morgan County!
