Coronavirus Update from Cpt Baer with PBSO

Greetings,

Here are some updates on the Coronavirus Pandemic that pertain to law enforcement activity in Lake Worth Beach:

•    The Town of Palm Beach enacted a curfew – There is no curfew in Lake Worth Beach or anywhere else in Palm Beach County

•    Our dispatchers will be asking additional questions to determine if persons at that location are exhibiting flu-like symptoms – when possible we will meet callers outside their residence

•    Expiring DL/ ID cards will be extended through April 30th

•    Citizens can receive an emailed copy of police reports by contacting our central records at emailcentralrecords@pbso.org

In patrolling the city yesterday I saw many people out and about - not participating in social distancing. This is key to slowing/ stopping the spread of the virus and returning to normal life. Please help us help you by limiting your activities to those that are absolutely necessary. Look out for your neighbors, particularly those that are elderly or have compromising health issues.

Be safe and be a good neighbor,

Captain Todd Baer
