Before heading out for a night of tricks and treats, the South St. Paul Police Department has a few reminders to help keep our trick-or-treaters safe!

Take a look at our Halloween safety tips, keep an eye out for little ghosts and goblins, and remember to slow down when driving through neighborhoods.

Have a safe and happy Halloween, South St. Paul!

Who in the department is most likely to eat the most Halloween treats? There seems to be a bit of a consensus.

Last night, Citizens Academy participants had the chance to put their use of force training into practice!

Participants worked through three scenarios: a traffic stop that took an unexpected turn, a mental health call, and a domestic disturbance involving an arguing couple.

Each scenario challenged participants to assess the situation, communicate, and make decisions under pressure, all while adapting to how quickly circumstances can change.

It was a great opportunity for participants to apply what they've learned and gain a better understanding of the decisions officers face in the field.

This past Wednesday night was Use of Force Night at Citizens Academy. Participants learned about different levels of force, when officers may need to use them, and how quickly situations can change.

Throughout the evening, participants practiced handcuffing techniques, fired a handgun under the supervision of fi****ms instructors, and tested their decision-making skills in a use-of-force simulator.

These hands-on activities gave participants a closer look at the split-second decisions officers face and the training that helps prepare them for those situations.

Slow your roll. Never exceed the speed limit on streets and always use a safe speed on shared paths. Just because you can go 20 mph on your Class 1 or 2 e-bike or 28 mph on your Class 3 e-bike doesn’t mean you should.

If it can go over 28 mph, exceeds 750 watts, or doesn’t have operable pedals, it’s not an e-bike. Those are e-motos, and there are a few more rules you should know about them:

• An e-moto operator must be at least 15 years old and have either a motorized bicycle permit or a driver’s license.
• An e-moto must be registered as a motorcycle through the DMV.
• E-motos are not allowed on sidewalks, bike lanes, or multi-use trails. E-motos are motor vehicles, in terms of where and how they can operate.
• Helmets are required for e-moto riders under 18.

There are three classifications of e-bikes based on how the bike operates and how fast it can go. Every e-bike must have a clearly visible sticker that shows its classification (if not, contact the retailer or manufacturer!).

See below to learn more about what e-bike classifications means and how it can impact your ride.
