Retired School Resource Deputy Spearheads "Pop Top" Drive for Charity

 
In August 2013 over 100 pounds of drink can tabs or "Pop Tops" were delivered to the Ronald McDonald House Charities on behalf of Retired Levy County Sheriff's Office School Resource Deputy (SRO) Donna Roe and the Bronson Middle/High School. Before retiring in 2012, SRO Deputy Roe instituted the community service drive at the Bronson Middle/High School wherein students were asked to collect and turn in "Pop Tops" in exchange for community service hours. These hours are needed to fulfill their requirements for the Bright Futures scholarships offered to High School Students.

 

Students collected around 250,000 tabs that weighed in at over 100 pounds. With such an overwhelming response, this program has been adopted by the Williston and Chiefland School Resource Deputies at their schools. The race is on to see which school can collect the most "Pop Tops" for donation to the Ronald McDonald House Charity. The Ronald McDonald House Charity recycles the aluminum “pop tops” and uses the money received to fund their programs, helping families in need. If you would like to participate in the drive just collect your "Pop Tops" and drop them off at your local Levy County High School attention to the SRO.

 

SRO Deputy Roe maintains her Law Enforcement credentials as a reserve Deputy for LCSO and continues to volunteer her time to our schools. The LCSO and students applaud her innovative ideas and tireless devotion to our community.

Sunday Morning Shooting Suspect in Custody


On Sunday September 1, 2013 Investigators with the Levy County Sheriff’s Office responded to the Emergency Room at a Marion County Hospital. A Citra resident arrived by personal vehicle and checked himself in for treatment for a gunshot wound. Investigators met and spoke with Michael Sumpter (B/M 11-2-1981). Sumpter told investigators that he had been at a party on NE 212 Court in Williston where he got into an argument with James Wilkerson (B/M 10-27-1976), also from Citra. During the argument Wilkerson, was armed with a small handgun. Wilkerson fired one shot which struck Sumpter in the left foot.

 

Investigators were able to secure an arrest warrant for Wilkerson late Sunday afternoon. The FRFTF (Florida Regional Fugitive Task Force) which is comprised of agents from the United States Marshals Service and local Law Enforcement located Wilkerson early this morning in Alachua County and were able to take him into custody without incident. Wilkerson will be transferred to the Levy County Detention Facility and held on a $200,000 bond.

Injunction for Williston Hip-Hop Event Signed


The Levy County Sheriff’s Office has become aware that a small group of organizers in Williston have scheduled a “Labor Day HIP- HOP Extravaganza” to take place at the So-So Clean Car Wash on Saturday August 31. The Levy County Board of County Commissioners had an emergency meeting earlier today to address this unsanctioned event. An Emergency Injunction has been granted to halt this event that is expected to draw crowds from around the state. The LCSO is in the process of serving this injunction on the organizers and the artists who were expected to perform at this event. Sheriff’s Deputies will be out to enforce this injunction and any person found in violation is subject to arrest.

 

The LCSO is especially concerned for PUBLIC SAFETY and the safety of travelers on this HOLIDAY WEEKEND. An event of this expected size will create additional traffic safety hazards to an already congested weekend. In addition the LCSO wants to avoid a situation similar to that encountered at the Crab Festival in 2013.

 

The LCSO recognizes that this event has been scheduled for people to come and have a good time. It appears that the organizers have disregarded Levy County Ordinance Chapter 10 that relates to “music or entertainment festivals”. Without proper planning on the organizers part we cannot allow this event to take place and place our citizens in harms way.

LCSO Recognizes Volunteers



On August 27, 2013, Sheriff McCallum and his staff met to honor members of the Citizens On Patrol (COPS) for the service they provide to the citizens.  Among many other things, these volunteers work traffic details for parades, funerals school zones and sporting events.  The COPS also assist the LCSO Civil Division with various duties at the courthouse. 
 
The assistance provided by these volunteers allows deputies to concentrate on law enforcement duties.  In the process, the COPS save the Levy County taxpayers thousands of dollars each year. 
 
The highlight of the ceremony was the recognition of Mrs. Mary Cowart for providing over 10,000 hours of service.  Mrs. Cowart attended the very first LCSO volunteer academy class in the 1990’s.  At that time the program was called “VOICE”.  Sheriff McCallum presented to Mrs. Cowart an engraved clock symbolizing her time and effort given to the citizens.  Sheriff McCallum also presented a blanket to Mrs. Cowart which was embroidered with the LCSO logo. 
 
Other COPS recognized at the meeting and their respective hours of service were: 
 

  1. Bob McFadden                                      9,000 hours;
  2. Dan Kelly                                              4,500 hours
  3. Stella Damann                                      3,500 hours;
  4. Donna McFadden                                  3,000 hours;
  5. Lonnie Hayes, Sr.                                  3,000 hours;
  6. Bill and Terry Merkel                              2,000 hours;
  7. Tom Munsell                                         2,000 hours;
  8. Glenn Bowers                                       2,000 hours;
  9. Ron Grant                                             1,500 hours;
  10. Lonnie Hayes, Jr.                                  1,500 hours;
  11. Robert Krumm                                      1,000 hours;
  12. Elihu Ross                                            1,000 hours;
  13. Linda. Hayes                                         1,000 hours;
  14. Dave Lewis                                              500 hours;
  15. Donna Munsell                                         500 hours;
  16. Jonathan Roark                                        500 hours;
  17. Bo Hayes                                                 500 hours

 

            
A big LCSO “Thank You” to all our volunteers, and especially Mrs. Mary Cowart!
