EMPHASIS:
Troop B To Host Blood Drive In Memory of Corporal Michael E. Webster
Captain James E. Wilt, commanding officer of Troop B, Macon, would like to invite the public to participate in the "Red Cross, Troop B Michael E. Webster Blood Drive" on Friday, October 11, 2019. The blood drive will be held at the Troop B Headquarters located at 308 Pine Crest Drive, Macon, Missouri. The drive will begin at 10 a.m. and conclude at 2 p.m.
On October 2, 1993, Corporal Michael E. Webster was killed in the line of duty by a drunk driver while standing next to a vehicle he had stopped for a traffic violation. Since his untimely death, blood drives like this one have honored his service to the community. The Webster family, Missouri State Highway Patrol, and the American Red Cross want to encourage everyone to come out and support the Corporal Michael E. Webster blood drive.
For questions, please contact Sergeant Eric Brown at (660) 385-2132 or go to

. Anyone who is interested in donating is encouraged to go to the Red Cross website and schedule a donation time. Enter 63552 and select the Missouri State Highway Patrol tab to schedule an appointment. Walk-ins are welcome and encouraged.
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.”
