St. Paul, Nebraska, is shutting down its police department and handing law enforcement over to the Howard County Sheriff’s Office—starting October 1—with current officers staying on as full-time county employees.

Residents worried about response times and local control are reassured: deputies already know the town, oversight remains local, and service won’t drop a beat.
