Minco Police Department

This week, Police Officers came together from all parts of Oklahoma to undergo Crisis Intervention Training in Mustang. Our very own Cpl. Clanton was one of the instructors for the course. Ofc. Halstead also attended and successfully completed the training and is now trained as a Crisis Intervention Officer. Congratulations! https://www.theyukonreview.com//mustang-officers-undergo/

On March 9th at approximately 3am an Officer with the Minco Police Department attempted to make contact with two individuals in the area of 7th and Belle. The individuals fled the area and were not located. The individuals did discard several items including a bicycle and some lawn equipment. If you believe any of the items belong to you please contact us at 405-352-4274. If no one answers leave a message and we will return your call as soon as possible. The individuals are believed to be connected to several incidents that have happened in the last 24 hours and locating the area these items were taken from could help determine the identities of the suspects.

Road conditions update with Cpl. Clanton.

IMPORTANT UPDATE The Canadian River Bridge just north of Minco and South of Union City on US HWY 81 has a sheet of ice on it. Emergency crews with Union City have already worked an accident on this bridge. Please slow down and drive with caution.
