ride along fulfilling a project for school. We arrived on a call of a homeless male near 120th and Q. The male did not have any shoes. Joe decided to take the shoes he was wearing and give them to the man.
As I sit at my post this evening, I just wanted to once again thank everyone for the out pouring support we have all witnessed the last few days. Hard working Nebraskans stepping up to help one another in need. Proud to call this state my home.

Today on a traffic stop near 108th and Fort, an older woman dropped a case of pop and it went all over the parking lot. Two random strangers stopped to help her pick them up. Helping one person might not change the world, but it could change the world for one person.
#selfless
While sitting at our assigned post in Fremont tonight, many people have stopped and offered water and food to Law Enforcement and First Responders up here. The LA Fire Proof Door hand delivered this burger and fries to us. Thank you all so much.

Troopers are experiencing near white out conditions all around the Omaha Metro areas. This includes Douglas, Sarpy, Cass, Dodge, and Washington counties. Please help us by doing your part and staying home. Troopers are call to call 24 hours a day right now.
Please retweet and like this photo. This is to honor Gothenburg Police Officer Jill McCandless

, who was tragically shot and killed. When a Police Officer is killed, it’s not just an agency losing an Officer, it’s an entire Nation.
If you see a Trooper in the middle of the Interstate with emergency lights on, going below the posted speed limit, don’t pass them. We do it for a reason. Running rolling roadblocks helps adjust the speed of vehicles coming into the crash scene. It’s for the safety of us all.
Please keep all fire department and first responder personnel across the state in your prayers as they are actively battling multiple fires throughout our state.
#GVFD
It’s not a courtesy to move over, it’s the law in Nebraska. Please do so for myself, my brothers and sisters in blue, all emergency vehicles, road assistance vehicles and tow trucks. We all want to go home safe at the end of the night.
Wow. I just had a woman stop behind me on the side of Highway 133, who was leaving her daughters Christmas and dropped this off. I did not get a name but thank you so much.

I am sitting on Highway 133 near Dutch Hall Road in Washington County. In the last ten minutes it has lightning, thundered, rained, snowed, sleet, and hailed. If only Mother Nature was driving, we for sure could give her a DUI. 🚔🚔🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️
Troopers just stopped this vehicle traveling 110mph in 65mph zone on I-680 near Dodge Street. Driver stated he didn’t think we were working because of the Coronavirus (COVID-19). Please don’t make choices like this guy. We are still working your Nebraska roads.

came across this little guy today near Highway 275 and Highway 36. The pup drank an entire bottle of water and was covered in ticks. Appears to be about a 5 month old pup and maybe a lab/boxer mix. The pup was dropped off at FurEver Home in Fremont.
After 30 years of being a Washington County Deputy, tonight at 1800 Captain Shawn Thallas’s legacy will come to an end. We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give. Your 30 years will never be forgotten. Thank you Sir.
@CountySO
Driver on the left .155 was arrested for DUI. Driver on the right .131, who came to get the first arrestees car, was also arrested for DUI. Please, if a State Trooper calls you to come get your car because the driver is going to jail......don’t show up drunk also.

The trooper has been taken to the hospital and is banged up, but thankfully he'll be okay.
Please keep he and his family in your prayers for a speedy recovery.

In the last week I’ve had a lot of firsts in my 18 year career. One thing I know for sure is that this guy is something special. He has earned the respect of a lot of people during the Omaha protests. Thank you to this command team for your amazing leadership.

If you own land or have access to the land to turn on a pivot please do. Firefighters are attempting to get control of a fire north of the metro. Please be proactive and activate your pivots and make sure your tractors are hooked up to a disc ready to go.
Troopers arrested a 16 year old driver early this morning for DUI, near 204th and Pacific. Driver was traveling 56mph in a 45mph zone. Parents, please make sure you are in your kids lives enough to know what they are up too. 16 is way to young to start getting DUI’s

If you don’t have to drive please don’t. With 5000 miles of paved roads in the Metro, the plows have a lot of work to do. Give them room to work and clear the roads for the am commute. Decrease speeds, cruise off, lights on, increase following distances, and wear your seatbelt
Please take a moment today and honor our fallen hero Trooper Jerry Smith

Current visibility on Interstate 80 right now. Get to a safe location and stop driving. Our resources are being spread thin for vehicles getting stuck, instead of actual emergencies. Please help us out here and stay home or get to a truck stop or rest area. Thanks.
Troopers stopped this 15 year old for traveling 115mph in a 65mph zone on Interstate 80 near 60th Street. The driver was traveling alone on a learners permit. Parents please don’t let this happen.

When you decide to get behind the wheel when you are this drunk, you indicate a willful disregard for the safety of yourself and the people and property of Omaha. This driver was arrested for DUI tonight near 132nd and Dodge. Make a better choice next time.

Troopers stopped this vehicle for traveling 94mph in a 60mph on Interstate 680. Driver also had a valid warrant and obviously drunk. Thankfully the vehicle was stopped before someone was killed.

Stopped both these vehicles this morning. One (blue) renewal tab expired April 2022 and the other (yellow) expired December 2021. Friendly reminder that your vehicles registration is due annually.
A troopers cruiser was just side swiped by a straight truck that didn’t move over near mile marker 441 on Interstate 80. Please take the time to move a lane over when you can.
#moveover
If you find yourself traveling through the town of Fort Calhoun in Washington County because I-29 is closed, let me save you some fines. The speed limits through town goes from 65mph to 45mph to 35mph to 25mph and then back up in the same sequence as you leave.
#obeythesign
Troopers just finished up with this crash which ended up landing the driver in jail for Dui. The driver was unrestrained sipping on some vodka driving down Interstate 80 near L Street. Please make better choices.
#NSP22
Overnight Troopers arrested a driver that was clocked traveling 102mph in a 65mph zone on Interstate 80. The driver was drunk with his 5 year old kid in the vehicle, and failed to stop until he was at his residence. Please do not make any of these choices and endanger people.
Nebraska State Law requires any driver who turns a vehicle, or moves left or right upon a roadway, shall use a turn signal aka blinker. Please assure prior to turning that you make sure the lane is reasonably safe to do so.
