Be Vigilant – See Something… Say Something

As the details of, and the investigation into, yesterday’s tragic event near the finish line of the Boston Marathon unfold, Butler County Sheriff Richard K. Jones reminds everyone of the importance of being ever vigilant and aware of your surroundings. “The word ‘tragic’ does not even come close to describing the senseless act that took place in Boston yesterday afternoon,” said Sheriff Jones. “After 9/11/01, we were all saying that our world would never be the same. These certainly have become different and difficult times.”

Butler County, Ohio, is not a high-profile or heavily populated area when compared with other areas of our country. Even so, that does not mean that something tragic will never happen here. Whether from a foreign or domestic terrorist, or even from just a mentally disturbed individual, the potential for a violent, senseless act is always present. That is why it is so important for everyone to always be on the lookout for things that just don’t seem to look right. If something looks suspicious, call 9-1-1 and make contact with proper authorities and have it checked out. Even if the suspicion proves to be an unfounded threat, it is still at least a valuable training experience for the responders. It is better to err on the side of caution than to ignore a potential problem that might have been remedied before a major crisis developed.

“So far, we have been pretty fortunate,” said the Sheriff. “Our specialty units have been called on a lot to check out suspicious items in the past (81 total Bomb Unit cases in 2012 and 23 year-to-date in 2013 including one this morning) and we are always ready to respond. There was a recent time, though, that did concern me a little. It seems that a reported ‘suspicious package’ went un-reported to authorities for almost two days before someone finally said something and had it checked out. Fortunately, it was not an explosive device, but you know, it easily could have been. Something suspicious sitting out in the open for two days in a well-traveled public place is something sitting two days too long. Please, be on the lookout. Remember, if you see something, say something.”
