If you have some old bottles of prescription medicines around the house, you are encouraged to get rid of the pills so they don't fall into the wrong hands.

Citizens can dispose of unwanted prescription drugs on Saturday, April 30, at Sheriff's Safety Town in Shreveport.

Caddo parish deputies are teaming up with agents from the DEA to host the Drug Take Back event from 10 a.m until 2 p.m. Sheriff's Safety Town is located at 8910 Jewella Avenue at the west end of the Summer Grove parking lot.

Deputies and officers will be on hand to collect and properly dispose of prescription and over-the-counter medications, such as tablets, capsules, and sealed liquids in a drive-thru service. Be sure to remove the label which includes your name and prescription number. You can not drop off  IV solutions, injectables or needles.
