Harrisonville police warn of new scam

Who Sent This Package? You Don't Want to Know!

QR codes. the square black and white barcodes that you scan with your phone’s camera to be instantly directed to a website or mobile app. Cybercriminals are also familiar with the QR code. The scam begins when you receive a package in the mail that you weren’t expecting which contains an item of little to no value. There’s no return address or sender information, but a QR code is printed on the box.

If you scan the QR code, you’ll be taken to a fake website and asked to enter your personal information so that cybercriminals can steal it. The website could even secretly install malware on your device!

Follow these tips to avoid falling for this QR code scam:
• Be suspicious of any package you receive that you didn’t order, especially if it has no sender information.
• Never scan a QR code from a source you don’t recognize or trust. Cybercriminals can use them to send you to malicious websites.
• Be careful about allowing websites and apps to access your phone’s data after scanning a code. Cybercriminals can use these websites and apps to steal your data or download malware to your device.

Henry county sheriff seeks wanted subject

 

On October 19, 2025, around 10:25 p.m., Deputy Stevens spotted Tristan Dawson riding a motorcycle with a mystery passenger leaving a Windsor business parking lot.

While the deputy was confirming information with Dispatch, Mr. Dawson and his passenger decided to “take a walk” — leaving the motorcycle behind in an alley. Turns out, that bike wasn’t exactly theirs to abandon…it had been reported stolen out of Clinton the day before.
To top it off, Mr. Dawson also has an active warrant out of Benton County for Failing to Appear on a charge of Assault – 4th Degree.
So if you happen to see Tristan (or his partner in poor decisions), feel free to let him know we’d like to chat — and this time, maybe he can stay still for it.
Tips can be submitted to the Henry County Sheriff’s Office at (660) 885-5587, via our mobile app or on our website.

Frost a possibility the next couple of mornings

 


COVER ANY OUTSIDE vegetation you care about for Wednesday and Thursday mornings.

Not super confident we'll see widespread frost south of about I-70. But a few patches of frost may be possible working into central / south central Missouri.
Best be on the safe side.
