Rayville Police Chief Willie Robinson advised parents should watch their children during the summer. He stated parents should know where their children are at all times. 

“If you work, please make sure your children have adult supervision,” Chief Robinson said. “If your children are old enough to stay home alone, they should have a list of emergency numbers to call in case of an emergency.”

Chief Robinson would like to encourage all citizens to report any suspicious persons, vehicles, or activities to Rayville Police Department.

“If you need our assistance in any way, please feel free to come by our office at 900 Harrison Street,” he said. “You can also call our office at 318-728-4431.”
