NIC donated $8,181 in funds raised through an annual pledge card campaign and a basket raffle this year.

On Monday, the Kootenai County Sheriff’s Department in partnership with the Coeur d’Alene Tribal Police worked an emphasis patrol in Southwestern Kootenai County. Each agency provided additional officers for this patrol that targeted traffic violators and wanted persons. By the end of the day, 27 traffic citations were issued, 8 total arrests including one traffic, three on outstanding warrants and four drug arrests were made. One of the drug arrests was for possession with intent to deliver and resulted in the seizure of a vehicle used to transport the drugs and approximately $4,200 in cash.
