Rayville Police Chief Willie Robinson continues to express to the public the importance of a partnership between law enforcement and the community.

“It is through working together that we become successful in making our community as safe as can be,” he said. “Our goal is to make our town and surrounding areas a place that we can feel safe to work, play, worship, raise and educate our children, retire and live a comfortable life.”

Therefore, he is asking each concerned citizen to report any suspicious activity to the Rayville Police Department so that it can be checked out. Chief Robinson further states that he has increased patrols and each officer will be checking neighborhoods thoroughly for antying that appears to be unusual.

On a brighter note, the chief hopes everyone had a safe, peaceful and joyous Easter celebration.
