Sarasota County Sheriff's Office conduct Operation Bueller to crack down on truancy in schools.
Bueller? Bueller? If kids are planning to skip out on school for a joyride like Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Sarasota County Sheriff's deputies have other ideas.

If your business or restaurant received a call from a man claiming to be an officer trying to collect bond, it's a scam. The Sarasota County Sheriff's Office said they received complaints where a suspect called local restaurants claiming to be a police officer reporting that another manager was under arrest. The caller claimed that he needed to set up a meeting place to receive bond money so the manager in custody could be released from jail. To be clear, it is not a law enforcement practice to contact someone on behalf of an arrestee to arrange bond, according to the sheriff's office. In addition, bond would only be arranged at the jail or with a licensed bail agent at their office, according to the sheriff's office. Under Florida law, …
