FRANKLIN, Ky. - Recently, the Franklin Police Department has been handing out glad tidings at record pace.

The department has put community at the forefront of their operations since moving into their new building in the spring of this year, wrapping up 2024 with a Shop with a Cop event, as well as a Santa Claus photo shoot at the station and posting "Elf on the Shelf" videos this month to Facebook.

Chief Roger Solomon with FPD said there's enough bad out there, so they want to share as much good as they can for the community to build a stronger relationship between the force and citizens to make a better Franklin for everyone.
