St. Charles County is transitioning to  automated, zone-based siren activations. Here is what #StCharlesCountyMO residents need to know:

📌Sirens will 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 when a 𝗧𝗼𝗿𝗻𝗮𝗱𝗼 𝗪𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 or 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗦𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗧𝗵𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗺 𝗪𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 is issued by the National Weather Service (NWS). 
📌 Siren activation is now 𝘇𝗼𝗻𝗲-𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱 (see image for defined zones). All sirens in the same zone will activate if the Warning polygon touches any part of that zone. 

As always, SCCREM staff will continue actively monitoring all severe weather from the EOC and will also maintain additional backup methods for siren activation.

DWI Saturation Patrols Planned in Wentzville.

This week the Wentzville Police Department will conduct coordinated DWI saturation patrols.

The effort will involve extra grant funded officers on patrol and Drug Recognition Experts (DREs)—officers specially trained and certified to identify drivers impaired by drugs, not just alcohol.

How you can help:
Talk to your friends and loved ones about making safe choices. Always plan ahead for a sober ride. Use a rideshare service, designate a driver, or stay overnight if needed. Never drive under the influence of alcohol or drugs. If you see someone who may be impaired, speak up or help them find a safe option. Your actions could save a life, maybe even your own. Let’s all do our part to prevent impaired driving and make our communities safer.

You guys stay safe and try to stay warm

Thank for keeping us safe on the roads 🙏😁

Thank you WPD!!!!

Thank you for keeping us safe!

❤️❤️❤️

Where at? I want to watch, lol

How about a saturation on the highway..... Through the construction zone.... One officer every mile or so... You'll make a killing in revenue. Don't rely on highway patrol they are stretched too thin... But.... People need to obey the 55mph

Are there any grant funded dollars for starting a cyber crimes division. The one St Charles county has only deals with pedos - lots of people being scammed on line and WPD is far behind.

Important information you should know when stopped at a checkpoint. 1. They do not have a right to search your car 2. Don't answer any questions. Not a single one, they will use anything they can against you. 3. Only roll the window down far enough to hand them your information, they can hear you just fine. 4. You are not required to submit to a sobriety test. 5. You are not required to give a urine or blood sample for testing but know that they will suspend your license for a year. 6. Dwi checkpoints were essentially defunded in MO in 2017 and now they rely on grants. Why would they refund something if it works????

Absolutely! We are stronger together. We should stand together as Americans against enemies that try to destroy our country or communities. We shouldn’t still be fighting and mistreating each other because the color of our skin! It’s definitely the content of character you look at in my opinion!! Thank you Wentzville PD for the love and support you all have for the community of Wentzville & surrounding areas!!! I really appreciate the courage and dedication you have to have to put your life on the line each and everyday to keep us safe!!! Thank you so much !! Keep up the great work!! ❤️ -Timothy Gully JR.

Do you hire Felons?

It’s sad that in the US sick leave is a ”benefit”

$40 an hour. Anything less would be a Felony 😂

Damn, I do home health and make $25 am hour. Do better Wentzville PD. These officers put their lives in the line
