👀 Marine Unit Officers Emrich & Eades were wrapping up patrol and rinsing the boat when an unexpected “dock inspector” showed up for a drink. Yes - a manatee. And no, she did not ask permission. As cool as it was, here’s the important part: manatees love fresh water, but we should never give it to them or encourage them to come close. That makes them associate people and boats with handouts - which puts them in danger. We skipped the citation (she refused to provide ID) and waited for her to clear out before docking. Because even when they’re breaking the rules, manatees still get the right of way. 💙

🐬 Officer Watton almost flipped out when she met not one, but at least four, playful dolphins while on foot patrol along Bradenton's Riverwalk this morning. She says she really clicked with the pod, but was on duty and couldn't join them for a swim. 🚔

Bradenton Mayor Gene Brown and his wife captured this amazing - yet scary - video of dual #waterspouts at the mouth of the Manatee River on Sunday. The Green Bridge is in the foreground. Drivers slowed and even stopped to witness the weather phenomenon.

These gentlemen pulled over to assist with moving a tree that was blocking a lane of Manatee Ave. on Thursday. They were on their way to assist a friend with debris cleanup. #Milton

🍕Pizza ... with a side of gator? 🐊 Officer Tolson responded to calls about an 8-foot gator in a 55+ community, intercepted a terrified pizza delivery driver, and ensured a hungry customer was fed (and a hungry gator wasn't). All in a day's work!
