The accident that occurred in Grimes yesterday which ended in a 14 yo teenager going to the hospital with injuries is a stark reminder what can happen even on the streets of our small town. WPD Officers have already had to engage in conversations with children riding these electric scooters about the dangers of them blowing through intersections. Parents please have these conversations at home and drivers in town please be watchful of our little ones. We want everyone to remain safe!
