The WFPD Crimes Against Children detectives have completed a thorough investigation of the attempted abduction near McNiel Jr. High on Friday, March 3. The detectives have determined that the incident was completely fictitious. The detectives also plan to file a charge for False Report on the female juvenile who made the fictitious report.

On 3-5-23 at approximately 6:00am, Officers were dispatched to 1000 Holliday (Stripes) for a hold up alarm. Upon arrival, Officer Stacey observed a suspect fleeing the scene on foot. Officer Stacey was able to take the suspect into custody quickly and identify him as Mario Escobar. A BB gun was used by Mario during the robbery and was charged with aggravated robbery and evading arrest. A quick response by Officer Stacey and other officers made this a great arrest and worthy of praise for their continued efforts to keep our streets safe. Great job to everyone involved!

We are excited this year to start back our “Coffee With a Cop” event. We will be hosted by United Market Street on March 7th at the coffee area located near the south side entrance of the store. This is a great time to speak to officers that patrol your streets and to possibly score some FREE swag.

The Wichita Falls Police Department would like to congratulate Detective Jason Jones on his retirement. Your 29 years of law enforcement service and dedication to the job will be greatly missed. We wish you the best on your new chapter in life.

We are still looking for certified TCOLE police officers to join our department and be associated with this great city.

Applications for the 46th Citizens Police Academy are now closed. The Wichita Falls Police Department will be in contact via phone or email for those that made the first cut off point. We ask that you respond in a timely manner so arrangements can be made on our end to give everyone the best police experience. Thank you all that applied and see you soon.
