Sheriff’s Office ‘Clean Sweep’ This Morning In Cantonment

April 19, 2012

The Escambia County Sheriff’s Office and the Farm Hill Neighborhood Watch will conduct an “Operation Clean Sweep” event this morning in Cantonment.

The clean-up will begin at 8:00 a.m. at Farm Hill Baptist Church 111 Madrid Road, Cantonment and will include areas from Muscogee Road to Well Line Road.

According to the Sheriff’s Office, the focus of “Operation Clean Sweep” is to work with neighborhood watch groups, residents, churches and business owners to control and prevent the damaging effects of crime.

The operation task force works closely with Escambia County Animal Control, Escambia County Environmental Law Enforcement, the military, Escambia County Roads and Bridges, and neighborhood watch groups to clean up neighborhoods and educate citizens on preventive measures that could be implemented to minimize possible crimes.

    Great post longtime! I’m sure they would have no problem these things if the actually looked. Ideas: along the power lines and don’t forget the woods off Well Line.

    Lived in the area a long time, hope they find some of the meth labs and such, “close” to the village.
