LCSO deputies seized trafficking amounts of cocaine during proactive patrols in Lee County.
“This shows that proactive patrols by hardworking deputies keep Lee County safe,” said 𝗦𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗳𝗳 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗲𝗻𝗼. “I will ALWAYS support our deputies and Narcotics Detectives in their work to keep drugs AND dealers off of our streets.”
Yesterday, 4th Precinct deputies conducting proactive patrols on Corkscrew Road stopped a vehicle driven by an individual later identified as 𝗙𝗿𝗲𝘂𝘁𝘇 𝗟𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗲.
During the stop, deputies established probable cause to search the vehicle, which revealed 𝗧𝗪𝗢 𝗞𝗜𝗟𝗢𝗦, 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝟰.𝟲 𝗽𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝘀, 𝗼𝗳 𝗰𝗼𝗰𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗲 concealed within the vehicle.

Our Incident Management Team is meeting for a scenario-based roundtable exercise designed to strengthen readiness, sharpen decision-making, and keep our team’s skills current.
Through ongoing training and realistic scenarios, we ensure our team is prepared to respond effectively and coordinate resources when an incident arises.
Training today. Preparedness for tomorrow.
Members of #TeamLCSO participated in this year`s 𝐅𝐢𝐞𝐥𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐅𝐥𝐚𝐠𝐬 event, hosted annually by 92.5 FOX News, to honor the lives lost in the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
Across Southwest Florida, attendees came together for simultaneous flag-planting ceremonies, placing 2,977 American flags in the ground, one for each life lost.
On this 25th anniversary, we pause to remember those who were taken from us, honor the heroes who made the ultimate sacrifice, and stand together as a community to ensure their stories and legacy are never forgotten.

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.
Watch real stories from the field, see how we work with the community, and get the latest updates straight from the source.
