Parsons, KS

The Parsons Police Department is warning citizens of a scam. Over the past few days, there have been a number of potential scams reported to law enforcement in Parsons and throughout Labette County. This is just the latest form of a scam that they have been notified about. The scam is a letter sent from what appears to be a law office claiming to have an unclaimed life insurance policy to collect.

Parsons PD Warns of Scam Letter

Around 50 people attend a town hall in support of former Fire Chief Kenneth Ward ahead of a peaceful picket planned today. During the meeting held at the Coffeyville American Legion, Ward outlined what led up to his termination from the fire department and his desire to be rehired and finish his career in Coffeyville. Others spoke during the meeting including Captain Mike O' Connor in his capacity with the local firefighter's union, asking anyone who does show up to picket today to be peaceful, respectful and understand that citizens must respect the legal process the city has in place. O'Connor says he has been a part of the union for 16 years.
