From the desk of Bates County Sheriff Chad Anderson

Flags at half staff at the BCSO

Today, with a heavy heart, I ordered the flag at the Bates County Sheriffs Office to be flown at half mass in honor of The Law Enforcment Officers who were killed yesterday.

I ask that you join our staff in prayers for those that have fallen, their families and their Police Departments.

Today courageous men and women across the country will have serious talks with their loved about their chosen profession. 

Rest assured that the men and women of the Bates County Sheriffs Office will continue to serve our citizens with the Respect and Honor you deserve. 

We will not coward down to the evils in this world.
 
Today we Stand for the Heros that have Fallen. Today we ask you to Stand with Us not against Us. God Bless You and God Bless America.

Sheriff Chad Anderson
