Members of LCSO’s Bonita Community Policing Unit had the honor of attending a moving keynote speech by Mikaila Cruz, a survivor of the World Trade Center attacks.
Hearing her firsthand account was a powerful reminder of the strength, courage, and resilience shown in the face of unimaginable tragedy. We are grateful to Mikaila for sharing her story and helping ensure that the lives lost and the heroes who responded are never forgotten.
“These acts shattered steel, but they cannot dent the steel of American resolve.” 🇺🇸❤️🩹🌟

Golden Paws Crisis Care K9™ Rollie once again had the honor of attending the 25th Anniversary 9/11 Memorial at the NYPD 10-13 Retiree Club in Cape Coral.
On this solemn day, Rollie provided comfort and companionship to those gathered to honor the lives and sacrifices of those we lost. His gentle presence was a reminder of the comfort and healing that comes from simply being there for one another.
Following the reading of the names of the 23 police officers who lost their lives that day, Guns and Hoses played one final song before everyone was dismissed until next year.
We remember. We honor. We will never forget. 🇺🇸🕊️

Law enforcement is constantly evolving, and the ability to adapt is a critical advantage.
Thanks to the generosity of a community donor, LCSO acquired a modular training system from UnHinged that allows our deputies to train in constantly changing environments.
This year, all LCSO law enforcement personnel participated in reality-based training, practicing breaching techniques, tactics, and critical-incident response across a variety of scenarios and floorplans.
At #TeamLCSO, we’re committed to innovative training that prepares our deputies for the challenges of today while building greater operational flexibility for tomorrow.
