BONNEVILLE COUNTY — This afternoon the Bonneville County Sheriff’s Office located a small green toddler bike near a canal at 45th E. and Lincoln Rd.
Deputies searched the canal and nearby area and was not able to locate anyone that belongs to that bike, however we have a welfare concern since it was located near the canal.

Some residents in that area may have already received a CodeRED call alert asking for this same information.
Canals and agricultural use ditches are still in use at this time and as always we urge caution when walking, riding, or playing near water, culverts, and bridges.
