In an effort to address the recent luring incidents experienced in our surrounding communities the Bogota Police Department requests all Citizens to be more diligent and observant as to their surroundings and report any suspicious incidents immediately to the police. 

As in the past, Bogota will be enforcing its' Juvenile Curfew Ordinance during the Halloween Holidays which states:
