As the warm months continue to press on, outdoor activities become more prevalent in Shelby County, and one that's rising in popularity is relaxing or tubing in Kaskaskia River. Sheriff Don Koonce of Shelby County said that it's okay for people to have fun, because recreation is a big part of the Shelby County Community, but he did clarify what won't be permitted during the river.

Sheriff Koonce wanted to make sure the public knew that the sheriff’s office would enforce rules at the river, especially after the incident that occurred there last week.

For more information or to report someone to the Shelby County Sheriff's Office, you can call 217-774-3941. Sheriff Koonce appeared on Friday's NEWSTALK WTIM Morning Show live from our Shelbyville studios.
