Sunday, January 01, 2017, at approximately 1540 hours, a Kiowa County Sheriff’s Deputy contacted a vehicle for speeding 118 Miles per Hour on Highway 287 at approximately mile marker 117. Deputies spoke with the driver, Lovell Rollins. Rollins was charged with CRS 42-4-1101, speeding 118 Miles Per hour in a 65 Mile per Hour Zone.
The Kiowa County Sheriff’s Office has been alerted by a county resident about a phone call where the caller purported to be from the IRS in order to obtain personal information.
The IRS does not call – or email - people asking for personally identifying information, including financial information. The agency sends notification via the United States Postal Services, and also responds to calls from taxpayers. Anyone receiving such a call should simply hang up.
Message to Drivers: Move Over. It’s the Law.
