Throughout the months of June and July, the police department worked seamlessly with the Prairie Village PD and other partners to provide security for the English National Team while they were staying locally for the World Cup. On Sept. 3 one of our drone pilots responded to use the drone FLIR and assist Overland Park PD officers in locating an auto burglary suspect hiding under a tarp. A week later the OPPD dive team responded to help LPD and a volunteer team recover the car belonging to a missing person from 2016 after it was found in a neighborhood pond.

Q3 FD: The fire department completed EMS training with our county partner Med-Act. Chief staff has been engaged with county partners on updating and creating model procedures to standardize responses to different types of incidents.
