Santa wants to visit everybody he can this Christmas Eve and our deputies are here to lend a helping hand. We are starting at 6pm Christmas Eve. If you would like a visit from Santa, please call to set up your time at 775-945-2434.

This sweet baby was brought to us at the station...she is soaking up the loves.... if any knows who her owner is please have them call us at 775 945 2434. She has no tags, was found around the 400 block of H st then was going into the El Cap.

It is with heavy hearts that Mineral County Sheriff Bill Ferguson, along with the entire MCSO family, express our deepest condolences to the Nevada State Police for the tragic loss of their two Troopers in the line of duty. Our thoughts and prayers are with their family, friends, and colleagues.

The Mineral County Deputy Association set a goal this year to raise $6,000 to fund the community projects they support. With the generous help of the community they have raised over $3,500 towards that goal! Next time you see a fundraiser that is supporting the Association remember that ALL of the funds stay LOCAL and in turn, supports our communities.

The Association fully funds the annual "Shop with a Cop" event, where local youth are able to travel out of town to do some shopping for their families for Christmas and have lunch with the deputies. The Association also donates to various sports and other community projects.

We want to recognize all of the hard work our deputies put into the fundraising and community events on top of their regular duties. Great job Mineral County Deputies Association.

This young lady was found wandering Harrison Street and brought to us. If you know who is missing their baby please contact the Department at 775 945 2434 or The shelter at 775-945-0701

Thoughts and prayers to the family, friends, and colleagues of Sheriff Darrell King of Big Horn County. May he rest in peace.
