It was a great day at the CSO! Sheriff Reynolds swearing in our newest four-legged deputy, K-9 “Blue"🙂

Guess who paid us a surprise visit this week? Retired “K-9 Dixon.” He retired in 2019 after serving Cherokee County for 6 years. He is 13 years old now and still lives with his handler Corporal Matthew Verber. 💙💙

Memorial Day weekend travel is upon us and the CSO will be out and about to help you get to where you need to go- safely! A few reminders for this holiday travel weekend: - Buckle up - Don’t drive impaired - Don’t text - Slow down Better to get there than not get there at all!

While at Northside Cherokee Hospital, Deputy Lockstead was notified of a cat trapped in the engine compartment of a vehicle in the parking lot. The owner of the vehicle was located. After opening the hood Deputy Lockstead and Animal Control Officer Nations rescued the kitten.

Thanks for brightening up our Tuesday Acopia Home Loans and Atlanta Communities by bringing lunch to the CSO today!! We are grateful for your generosity and your support.

The CSO is really feeling the love this week. Thank you Victoria from Chart Industries for remembering our Court Security staff and dropping off lunch today. It was such a nice surprise.

It's Wonderful Wednesday! Wanted to give a shout out to Carmel Elementary's "Mustang Barn" for inviting our Oak Grove deputies to visit. Not only did we get to meet these sweet kids, we did not leave empty handed. Thank you for making us feel loved.

The CSO has been lucky enough to have K9's and if you've ever met one, you know they are every bit a law enforcement officer as their 2-legged partners. Today, after five years of loyal and dedicated service with the CSO, Deputy K9 Xena officially retired.

Today marks the start of National Police week 2023. This week, let us remember officers who have lost their lives in the line of duty and give thanks to those who currently sacrifice their lives on a daily basis. This profession is truly a calling. #nationalpoliceweek2023

It was Fun Friday for the CSO! Our Lt. McCoy from the Oak Grove Precinct and Sgt. Smith, Deputy Hart and Deputy Stallings from our Traffic Enforcment Unit dropped by Clark Creek Elementary School today and was lucky enough to hang out and chat with some of the wonderful students.
