Trooper Steve On Patrol tours Seminole County with sheriff’s office lieutenant

Sheriff’s office Lt. Mike Hawkins rides in Results-1

SANFORD, Fla. – The best part about having a mobile studio is bringing community leaders directly to you.

Part of WKMG Hits the Road is featuring what you want to see. Today, I welcomed Seminole County Sheriff’s Office Lt. Mike Hawkins into Results-1 to discuss what it’s like policing the northern section of Seminole County.

Lt. Hawkins has been with the sheriff’s office for just about 27 years and currently commands the north district. This district also includes part of the city of Sanford. I wanted to have a discussion with him because all his career has been within Seminole County for the most part and is now focused in one of our busiest areas

Join me for a candid conversation about what it’s like policing the north district and a little bit about his career.
