Did you know many incidents can now be reported by telephone? If you would like to speak to a deputy about an incident that is not in progress you may do so by calling the appropriate precinct during normal business hours. 
Forsyth County Deputy Sheriff Taryn Perkins has captured First Place in the “Tough Cop” female officer competition at the 2010 Georgia Police & Fire Games, Sheriff Ted Paxton announced today.
The Games, now in their 16th year, draw police officers and fire fighters from all over the State of Georgia who compete for bragging rights in a number of different competitions. Contestants compete based on gender and age groups.
The Games were held earlier this week in Carroll County.
Deputy Perkins, who is a five-year veteran of the Sheriff’s Office, won a gold medal in the “Tough Cop” competition. “Tough Cop” contestants compete in five different categories, all of which are designed to simulate what might be expected while on the job. The five areas are pushing a car, pulling a dummy that weighs a certain distance, firearms shooting competition and running an obstacle course.
Deputy Perkins also won a gold medal in the 5K Run competition as well.
