Congratulations on your retirement!

After 40 years in law enforcement, 24 years of which with the Westminster Police Department, Senior Police Officer Scott Hopkins is officially retiring.

During his two decades with the City of Westminster, Officer Hopkins has served as a Patrol Officer, School Resource Officer, Field Training Officer, Officer Survival Instructor and SWAT Team member (22 years!)

In his retirement letter, he wrote in part, "I would like to sincerely thank the police department, command staff, supervisors, support staff, and especially all the patrol officers I have worked with day-to-day for making my time here meaningful and fulfilling. The relationships, experiences, and memories I have gained throughout my career are things I will always value and appreciate."

Scott, thank you for all your service and wisdom over the years. We will miss you and wish you all the best on this next chapter. Please come back and visit!

BUYERS BEWARE | Thinking about buying a vehicle on Facebook Marketplace? Do your homework before handing over your money.

We’ve seen cases where criminals swapped VINs, replaced federal safety stickers with fraudulent ones, and manipulated odometers to make vehicles appear to have lower mileage than they actually do.

These details can be difficult to spot, so take the time to protect yourself:
◾Run a Vehicle History Report (can use services like Carfax, etc.)
◾Do Your Research
◾Obtain Necessary Documents & Information (verify VIN on the vehicle matches the registration & title)
◾Complete a Bill of Sale
◾Avoid High-Pressure Sales
