Your Lytle P.D. week in review … Officers handled 68 calls for service and conducted 99 traffic stops. Of those stops, 78 resulted in citations and 21 were warnings. I will expand a little on the traffic stops. Fifty-three (53) of the citations were for speeding, with the average speed of 13.13 miles per hour over the limit. The largest amount over the limit this week was 26 miles per hour (71 in a 45), with several others that were over at least 20 MPH.

So, if anybody tells you they got a ticket for going 2 or 3 miles over the limit in Lytle, ask to see the ticket.
