Members of the Red Oak Police Department will be serving our community during the drug take-back program which is happening Saturday, April 22, 2023 from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM at the Red Oak Police Department. No matter where you live in Ellis County, take it to the box. The National Prescription Drug Take Back addresses a vital public safety and public health issue. Many Americans are not aware that medicines that languish in home cabinets are highly susceptible to diversion, misuse, and abuse.
