Master Trooper Dean A. Goodheart #neverforgotten #honor #legacy #memorialdayweekend
Trooper Summers sent me these drone pictures today from Grinnell. Thankful that everyone is OK in that little community! 🙏

In case you didn’t know, I 70 is closed from Colby to the Colorado state line due to high winds and blowing dust.. I’m not sure how long this closure will last. Check kandrive.gov for road updates. #KSwx
Meet Journey, during my talk to the Colby Middle School JAG-K class today, she drew my portrait. 😊 Does it look like me? She showed me her other works too. She’s a talented little artist!
How am I supposed to follow that, EagleMed 9 - Hays, KS 🤷♂️😁 This happened during my rollover demo today in Plainville, pretty exciting for the kids.
This was on I-70 in Russell County last Thursday. Thankfully the driver was not injured, thanks to his seatbelt. April is Distracted Driving Awareness Month, not saying this driver was distracted, but if you are, it can increase the risk of a crash by 23 times. #JustDrive
WE HAVE A WINNER! Trooper Ian has chosen “Ike”. It seems like an appropriate name for a Kansas HP K9. ☺️ Thanks to all of you for your suggestions. #ServiceCourtesyProtection
If you see a bunch of troopers and K9's in the area around the KSU Ag Research center and the Hwy 183 Bypass over the next week, we are conducting a training so please don't be alarmed.
OK, everybody, Trooper Ian is training his new partner and says that everything is going well and they have about four weeks to go. He is trying to pick a name for him and would love your input. Todro was already rejected 🤷♂️ Throw out your best suggestions.
Today was the grand opening of the KHP section of the Highway 36 Museum in Norcatur, KS. If you are in that area, you should go check it out and read about our rich history. #ServiceCourtesyProtection
I’m recruiting at McCook, NE Community College today and the students here seem to like the ride I brought with me! ☺️ If you’re in McCook, come say hello!
Norton High School put on a mock fatality crash today. Mrs. Delimont did a great job putting it together and the student role players, in the photo with me, also did a great job! 👏 Thanks to all the Norton first responders who helped out.
Look what I spotted this morning between Hays and Wakeeney 😊 Sometimes when I’m driving across the 18 counties that I cover, I get to see some awesome things!
