  • Updated
Police Toys

A toy police truck sits in a pile of other toys Thursday morning waiting to be delivered to area needy children. The Northern Arizona and Flagstaff Law Enforcement Toy Drives have gathered enough toys to provide Christmas presents to more than 750 children in northern Arizona this year.

 The annual Northern Arizona Law Enforcement Toy Drive begins on Dec. 1 and run through Dec. 21. Officers from law enforcement organizations across northern Arizona will staff the donation booth located at the Walmart on 2601 E. Huntington Drive. Donations can also be dropped off at the Flagstaff Police Station located at 911 E Sawmill Rd.

The toy drive is supported by the Shadows Foundation, APS and officers from the Flagstaff, Northern Arizona University, Williams, Sedona and Winslow Police Departments, Coconino County Sheriff's Office and the Arizona Department of Public Safety. The 2017 drive helped approximately 250 families covering nearly 700 children.
