Today, Clear Lake CHP officers responded to multiple 9-1-1 calls reporting two over-length Big-Rigs coming from Mendocino County into Lake County on State Route 175 (Hopland). Because of the quick action of concerned motorists like you, officers intercepted and cited them.
During a recent training day, the Clear Lake Area commander was happy to present Officer Steven Andre, ID 24102, with his first 10851 VC Award. Officer Andre earned his first award by diligently investigating, locating and recovering stolen vehicles in Lake County! Congrats!
