Today, the Fordyce Police Department joins our community and our nation in remembering the tragic events of September 11, 2001.

We pause to honor the nearly 3,000 innocent lives lost that day and the countless families whose lives were forever changed. We remember the firefighters, law enforcement officers, emergency medical personnel, dispatchers, military members, and ordinary citizens who demonstrated extraordinary courage in the face of unimaginable danger.

While others were running to safety, first responders ran toward the devastation—knowing the risks, yet answering the call without hesitation. Their bravery, selflessness, and sacrifice remain powerful reminders of what it truly means to serve others.

We also remember the unity that followed. Americans stood together, supported one another, and showed the world that even during our darkest moments, our nation’s strength and spirit could not be broken.

May we continue to honor those we lost by serving our communities with compassion, standing together in times of hardship, and never taking our freedoms for granted.

From all of us at the Fordyce Police Department, we extend our deepest respect and gratitude to the victims, their families, the survivors, and every first responder who answered the call that day.

September 11, 2001—forever in our hearts.

🇺🇸 We will never forget. 🇺🇸

Drive Sober Get Pulled Over

Let’s Work Together to End Drunk Driving!
Fordyce, AR- From August 19 through September 7, 2026, the U.S. Department ofTransportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration will be working alongsidelocal law enforcement to deter drunk driving and prevent tragedies during the Labor Dayholiday weekend. The message is clear: Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over.During the 2024 Labor Day holiday (6 pm August 30 - 5:59 am September 3), there were505 traffic crash fatalities nationwide. Of these 505 fatalities, 34% (170) involved a drunkdriver. Seventy-seven percent of the impaired drivers killed had a blood alcohol concentration(BAC) of .15 or higher. Among drivers between the ages of 18 and 34 who were killed incrashes over the Labor Day holiday in 2024, 40% of those drivers were drunk, with BACs of .08or higher.“We want our community members to understand that it’s our first priority to keep peoplesafe, so we’re asking everyone to plan ahead if they know they’ll be out drinking,” saidSergeant Ryan Johnson. “The Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over campaign is anawareness effort to get the message out that drunk driving is illegal and it kills. Let’s makethis a partnership between law enforcement and drivers: Help us protect the community andput an end to this dangerous behavior.”If a driver intends to drink during a Labor Day festivity, he or she should plan ahead for a saferide home by securing a designated driver or calling a taxi or ride-share. They shouldn’t waituntil after drinking to plan how to get somewhere. Impairment clouds a person’s judgmentand endangers others on the road.If a driver finds they are unable to drive, they should give their keys to a sober driver so thatperson can get them home safely. When a friend has been drinking and is considering driving,friends should be proactive — take away the keys and help them get a sober ride home. Ifanyone spots a drunk driver, contact Fordyce Police Department.For more information on impaired driving, visit NHTSA.gov/Drunkdriving.

Burn ban still in effect

🔥 BURN BAN REMAINS IN EFFECT 🔥
The burn ban remains in effect for Dallas County and the City of Fordyce.
While our area did receive some much-needed rainfall, the amount of rain was not sufficient to safely lift the burn ban. Dry conditions and the risk of fires remain a concern.
🚫 Please do not conduct any outdoor burning or have open flames while the burn ban is in effect.
We ask everyone to continue using caution and help prevent unnecessary fires. The public will be notified when conditions improve enough for the burn ban to be officially lifted.
Thank you for your cooperation and for helping keep our community safe.

Plan ahead: Before you have even one drink, designate a sober driver to get you home safely. If you wait until you’ve been drinking to make this decision, you might not make the best one.
