Rayville Police Chief Willie Robinson would like to remind all motorists to be cautious and vigilant when driving in bad weather. 

This is the time of year when we experience heavy rains, fog, overcast conditions and such. Visibility is hindered, which produces conditions that are favorable for accidents.

Chief Robinson would also like to remind parents of the importance of monitoring your children’s activities and associates. Keep your children at home and off the streets during night hours. 

Most criminal activity occurs after dark. That’s when your children are in most danger of either being victims of criminal acts or being drawn into involvement in criminal activity.

Chief Robinson encourages all citizens to come by Rayville Police Department at 900 Harrison Street or call 318-728-4431 if you need his help in any way.
