About FlashAlert on Twitter:
FlashAlert utilizes the free service Twitter to distribute emergency text messages. While you are welcome to register your cell phone text message address directly into the FlashAlert system, we recommend that you simply "follow" the FlashAlert account for Newberg-Dundee Police Dept. by clicking on the link below and logging in to (or creating) your free Twitter account. Twitter sends messages out exceptionally fast thanks to arrangements they have made with the cell phone companies.
The Newberg-Dundee Police Department participated in enhanced traffic patrols during December's holiday season. The enforcement was specifically focused on driving under the influence of intoxicants. The effort resulted in 12 arrests for DUII, which was twice the amount of DUII arrests for the same period last year.
Funding for these extra patrols is made possible through grants and in partnership with the Oregon Department of Transportation.
