🍋🚔 When life gives you lemons… call Trooper Mora!

Our newest Kansas Highway Patrol Trooper in SWK, Trooper Mora (K-214), is already making friends in a lot of communities. While patrolling in Cimarron, he couldn’t resist stopping by a local lemonade stand to support some young entrepreneurs and enjoy a cold refreshing cup!

We’re excited to welcome Trooper Mora to the KHP family…and judging by his smile, we think he’s going to fit right in. Be sure to wave 👋 if you see him out and about in Southwest Kansas!
