 July is going to be hotter than ever because you get up to $50 off any smartphone at Appalachian Wireless to your agreement required. Better service? Bigger savings? That's today's Appalachian Wireless, an East Kentucky network company. The Floyd County Sheriff's Department are beginning foot patrols around the county as several residents have been expressing concern for their communities. Many say their neighborhoods are not what they used to be and some don't feel comfortable taking evening walks. We thought that if they wouldn't feel uncomfortable with walking, that's what we should do. So we're going to get out and walk with them or walk in their place until we think that we'll do it all through the summer from here on out and pick different communities throughout the county. We'll be in Oxford, we'll be in Garrett, we'll be in communities all through the county. As time allows us to, but we will park our cars and we will walk and hopefully people can share with us information. We can find out the hot spots and what the trouble spots may be and then we'll follow up on that. Residents and the community are appreciative of the extra effort the Sheriff's Department is showing. It makes me feel very comfortable that they you know they can get out and you know walk around the neighborhood, check everything out and just you know it should make everybody feel comfortable. You know that they're actually getting out here and actually walking it too. Everybody should be comfortable just to get out and just walk around and things like that. I think it's a great thing. I think it's good that they're willing to get out and do that and you know that just lets individuals know that hey you've got somebody that cares and they're willing to take a situation or whatever it might be and just try to look after people. Sheriff Hunt says if you would like to request the department walk in your neighborhood simply call the tip line at the number listed on your screen. Reporting from Allen, I'm Sean Allen for EKB News.
