🚨 EXCITING NEWS FROM THE GREERS FERRY POLICE DEPARTMENT! 🚨

🚔 NEW BODY-WORN CAMERAS! 🚔

I am proud to announce that the Greers Ferry Police Department now has body-worn cameras for our officers!

This is another exciting step forward in our continued commitment to professionalism, transparency, accountability, and building trust within the community we proudly serve.

These cameras will not only help protect our officers but will also provide an additional level of accountability and documentation during interactions with the public.

I want to extend a HUGE THANK YOU to our Mayor, City Council, and, most importantly, the citizens of Greers Ferry for helping make this possible! Your continued support and investment in our department allow us to provide our officers with the equipment and resources they need to better serve and protect our community.

As Chief of Police, I believe our citizens deserve a police department that operates with integrity, transparency, and professionalism. We will continue working hard to move this department forward and make our community proud.

We are excited about this new addition and grateful to everyone who helped make it happen!

🇺🇸 Serving with Pride. Protecting with Integrity.

Good morning Greers Ferry! If you know this person, can you please have him contact us. He is not in trouble, the nice lady at the gas station started his pump before the card machine was able to read/charge it. That nice lady is now out the money for the fuel that day. We greatly appreciated your assistance and have a blessed day.
