Deputies Conducting Enforcement Efforts in North Shelby County
Release Date: June 10, 2005
Deputies with the Shelby County Sheriff’s Office will be conducting a “zero tolerance” crime suppression effort in the Northaven and Woodstock areas of North Shelby County this evening.
“Our Deputies will be sending a clear message about the importance of driving safely. This enforcement saturation is part of our continuing efforts to have additional officers patrolling neighborhoods through a grant from the Governor’s Highway Safety Office,” said Shelby County Sheriff Mark H. Luttrell, Jr.
Deputies will be targeting impaired driving, speeding, aggressive driving and seatbelt violations. Additionally, officers will be on high alert for other reports of crime.
Last evening, deputies concentrated their efforts in North Shelby County near Highway 51 at Fite Road and along Raleigh-Millington Road just north of the Loosahatchie River. Here are the results of that enforcement effort:
