🌾🔥 Dry conditions and harvested fields can fuel fast-moving grass and brush fires, putting homes, livestock, structures and farm equipment at risk.

Have a farm fire safety plan. Know your evacuation routes, livestock relocation areas and how firefighters can access your property.

A little prevention can go a long way to help with a safe and successful harvest season.

🚨 VIRTUAL KIDNAPPING SCAM ALERT 🚨

Callers are falsely claiming that a juvenile family member has been kidnapped. The caller may claim to be associated with a cartel, demand money, direct the recipient to a local Walmart, or repeatedly change the meeting location before instructing the recipient to purchase a prepaid card. A distressed voice may also be heard during the call.

The family members involved in the reported incidents were independently located and confirmed safe.

❌ Do not send money, purchase prepaid cards, or meet the caller.
📱 Contact your loved one directly.
☎️ Report the call to law enforcement immediately.

Please share and remain vigilant!
