Beginning Oct. 24th through 28th, the Junction City Police Department will join other Kansas law enforcement agencies to stop what has been compared to an epidemic in the state. In 2019, eight children, ages 0-13 lost their lives due to car crashes in the state. Sadly, 62% of those children were not wearing their seat belts.
Oct. 24th through the 28th, law enforcement officers across Kansas will be extra vigilant when patrolling around schools. Officers will issue citations to anyone who does not obey Kansas law.
