The Mississippi Department of Public Safety posted on its Facebook page wishing residents a Happy Easter and urging people to stay safe while they celebrate.
The agency said, “Happy Easter from the Mississippi Department of Public Safety! We hope that you, your family, and your friends enjoy today and stay safe. Thank you to those who are working today to protect our communities and keep us safe!” The message thanked public safety personnel working on the holiday.
The Department of Public Safety is the state agency responsible for overseeing law enforcement functions such as the highway patrol and other safety programs. Holiday messages from law enforcement agencies typically aim to remind motorists and the public about safety precautions and to recognize officers and emergency workers who remain on duty.
The post serves as both a seasonal greeting and a public-safety reminder as communities observe the holiday. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
