i moved away from trumann 4 years ago after growing up there and experiencing the "down side" to a drug addiction. i am so thankful that the TPD is cleaning up trumann so that others have a fighting chance to be happy there. we needed a strong force YEARS AGO!!! thank for protecting my hometown and family still there!
our police dept. is awesome.but what happened to our water and sewer dept? my water bill has went from 40 to 71 dollars with 35 sewer.whats up with that?
Kudos to the Trumann Police Department. When I moved here 3 years ago I could literally watch drug transactions on the street corner from my apartment window. I never went out after dark I was so afraid. That doesn't happen anymore. Trumann isn't different from any other town in America, there is a terrible drug problem and it does AFFECT US ALL! If you see something suspicious, report it, TPD will do something about it! You guys are doing a fantastic job, keep up the good work!
