Introducing the #9PMRoutine

A quick nightly habit can help reduce your chances of becoming a victim of theft or other crimes.

Each night at 9 p.m., take a few minutes to:
Lock your vehicles
Remove keys and valuables
Lock exterior doors
Close garage doors
Turn on exterior lights

Many vehicle break-ins and thefts occur because criminals find easy opportunities, especially unlocked vehicles and open garages.

A simple check before bed can make a big difference.

Stay alert. Stay safe. Make the #9PMRoutine part of your nightly routine.

On Tuesday, May 19 we hosted week 7 of the Wentzville Police Department Citizens Police Academy Class of 2026.

Our first presentation of the night was from the St. Charles County Regional Drug Task Force. This was packed with interesting information about how law enforcement in St. Charles County proactively combats drugs in our community. 

Then, a presentation from two of our officers detached to the St. Charles County Regional S.W.A.T. Team explaining their role in tactical operations and displayed all the equipment used to handle any situation they encountered. They are a specially trained unit that responds to high-risk situations requiring advanced tactics and specialized equipment. S.W.A.T. assists with critical incidents across the county and supports any agency needing a tactical response to protect public safety.

We finished with a special visit from K9 Winnie. As a therapy K9, Winnie’s calm presence, gentle cuddles and love for tummy rubs have brightened the day for countless officers, staff and residents. Whether visiting schools, attending community events or simply offering quiet support inside the department, Winnie plays an important role in promoting wellness and connection to our community.  

Thank you to everyone who attended to continue learning more about the Wentzville Police Department. We’re looking forward to graduation night for Week 8!
