-Introducing thank-you notes and support messages sent to the Akita Prefectural Police-

"Thank you note for issuing breaking news"

[Reiwa October 2nd year accepted by Akitahigashi Police Station]

As for the response staff, a bear appeared in the shopping district last month from the local residents while guarding the jurisdiction, so I would like you to put a warning about bears on the public relations paper issued at the police box.
I saw a resident, so I wondered if something could be done and called out.
I received a request.
The next day, in consideration of the frequent occurrence of personal injury caused by bears in the prefecture, the response staff created a breaking news of the police box containing information on bear sightings in the jurisdiction, and patrolled the houses in the jurisdiction to call attention to prevent damage caused by bears. We distributed it to the whole area while doing.
At a later date, I wanted to be proud of the quick response, light footwork, and above all, the sincerity of the people living in the jurisdiction.
I was reminded that it would be good to consult with the expatriate of Oraho even for minor concerns.
I received a thank-you note.

"Thank you note for dealing with derailed vehicles"

[Reiwa October 2nd year accepted by Noshiro Police Station]

Corresponding staff
I received the 110th call that the vehicle had derailed in the gutter and went to the site.
The applicant reported that the bear was infested because the place of derailment was in the mountains, and he was in the process of descending with his son in his arms. The response staff put the applicant's parent and child on a police car, confirmed the derailment location, handled the accident, and arranged for a tow truck. Also, considering the risk of bears appearing, we again put the applicant's parent and child on a police car to the foot of the mountain and waited for the arrival of the tow truck.
Later, from the offerer
Thank you very much for your quick response and kind consideration when you got stuck.
Thanks to you, I was able to return home without incident, just like my child.
I received a thank-you note.

"Thank you note for lost property discovery activities"

[Reiwa 2 November, Gojome Police Station accepted]

The responding staff received a report from the applicant that the wheelbarrow they were using when going out was not found, and conducted hearings and searches from the places they were walking around, but did not find it. After that, there was a report that a wheelbarrow was found from a convenience store in the jurisdiction, but it did not match the characteristics of the applicant's property. Since the location of the found item was within the range of action of the applicant, the responding staff considered the possibility that it was the same property, and when they scrutinized the image of the security camera installed at the location of the found item, the applicant Was found to have come to the store with a lost wheelbarrow, and after the required procedures, he returned it to the applicant.
Later, from the offerer
Thank you for taking care of us during your busy schedule.
Thanks to you, I will return it to you and use it carefully.
I received a thank-you note.

"Thank you note for the rescue of a vehicle that is stuck in the snow"

[Reiwa 2nd December Yokote Police Station accepted]

While patrolling the city of Yokote, the response staff found a vehicle that was stuck on a snowy mountain. Since the applicant was on board the vehicle and was upset because he did not know what to do, the responding staff calmed the applicant, removed the snow around the vehicle, and escaped from the snowy mountain while pushing the vehicle manually. I was allowed to.
At a later date,
Two young police officers on patrol helped me when I was stuck in the snow early last morning.
When I was at a loss alone, I was really grateful when I was asked what happened.
I received a thank-you note.
