When you see the DeWitt County Sheriff's patrol officers out, you've probably noticed they are more often than not, in either SUVs or trucks.
That's because the SUV and truck model patrol vehicles are becoming more reliable and more user friendly for law enforcement. DeWitt County Sheriff Jered Shofner indicates they are also about the cost and equally as cost-effective.
The Sheriff is pleased with the way the trial of the truck has gone, so much so, they are almost going to exclusively go to the truck because of it's versatility.
The vehicles are outfitted with lots of features and while they are great resources, the Sheriff stresses to his deputies the importance of continuing to make contact with the public.
The Sheriff hopes to have the trucks mid-year and they will look very similar to the vehicles already out and on patrol.
