Avoiding Distractions While Driving
We never set out with the intent to have an accident. But far too often, we allow the distractions of the modern world to interfere with our daily driving routines. While it’s easy to think that our phones or other distractions won’t lead to an accident as long as we’re careful, the truth is that even a single text dramatically decreases our chances of arriving at our destination safely. Even worse, when we take our eyes off the road, we increase our chances of harming fellow drivers as well.

Hospital Helps out Santa Claus
The Mesquite Police Santa Cop Toy Program is an annual event that has been going on for over 40 years. It began with Mesquite Police Officer Reese Bullard, who was assigned to a low-income apartment complex and knew families that we’re unable to provide Christmas gifts for their children. Bullard made arrangements for these families to receive gifts, and each year the need grew, and in 1982 the program went citywide and continues to grow and provide for more families with the help of the community.
