EMPHASIS:
Results Of HIDTA Operation--Troop H
Captain James E. McDonald, commanding officer Troop H, St. Joseph, announces the results of a High Intensity Drug Trafficking (HIDTA) operation conducted in Troop H. Interstate 29, Interstate 35, and U.S. Highway 36 were the roadways targeted in this operation. The operation was conducted from December 4 to December 7, 2016. As a result of the project, officers issued 22 citations for traffic violations and 149 warnings. Officers made one felony drug arrest, seven misdemeanor drug arrests, and two misdemeanor warrant arrests.
The only 100 percent survivable traffic crash is the one that never happens. Make sure everyone in the vehicle is properly restrained in a seat belt or child restraint. Every day as we travel on Missouri's roadways, we trust that every driver on the road is going to obey the speed limit, pay attention, and drive sober.
"Don't Violate The Trust."
