The Columbia City Police Department is implementing a tip-line for the community. The tip-line will be utilized so that citizens in Columbia can have a confidential way to report any type of drug issues in our town.
“The Columbia City Police Department is committed to having a safe environment for our families,” said Chief Jason Cross. The tip-line is another additional option that citizens can utilize.
The tip-line number is 270-378-2259. For further information, please contact the local police. The last four digits are in recognition of Cally Paige McFall, daughter of Stacey Hatcher Wilson. Hatcher Wilson will be funding the tip-line for the city.
This tip-line is another addition to the department as they focus on activity in Columbia. The city recently received a grant through USDA for an educational vehicle that will be used for drug education at local activities and in the school system.
“We have also started a drug task force,” said Mayor Pamela Hoots. “Our priority is a safe community for all,” she noted.
Officer Evan Burton will be responsible for the dedicated line for the Columbia City Police Department.
