SCAM ALERT!!!

The Washington County Sheriff's Office wants our community and resident's to be made aware of a SCAM suspects are currently using. A caller will reach out identifying themselves as an employee of our office, and state that you have an federal warrant for missing grand jury. From there they will keep you on the phone and instruct you to make payment to a Bitcoin machine at a random location, and advise you to keep receipt and stop by our office the following day to prove payment was made. If you receive a call from someone, and they are describing this scenario please call our office, or call dispatch to request to speak to a deputy.

Today, We Remember.

This morning, we honor the First Responders who sacrificed their lives during the September 11, 2001, attacks, as well as the civilians who lost their lives that day.

Washington County Sheriff’s Office Deputies, along with fellow local agencies, participated in the 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb, climbing 2,200 steps—representing the 110 floors of the World Trade Center.

We climb to remember. We climb to honor. We climb to never forget. 🇺🇸♥️🤍💙

Never Forget. 9/11/01
