How do we keep the citizens of Clinton and Anderson County safer... TEAMWORK!! On 06/19/2024, Officer Padilla and his K9 partner "Rocket" were called to assist the Anderson County Sheriff's Office on a vehicle stop. During the investigation, K9 Rocket alerted to the vehicle for the presence of narcotics. A search was conducted by officers, and dangerous drugs were found and taken off the street. The drugs found were: 55.7 grams of methamphetamine, 11.2 grams of cocaine, and 25.8 grams of heroin. Great job by both the Anderson County Sheriff's Office and Officer Padilla with the assist!
