While the Martin County Sheriff’s do have a Sergeant Wells on staff, they would like to remind the public that they would NEVER ask for money over the phone in place of being arrested.

If you receive this type of call, do not give out your information.

If you have any additional questions or information, please contact the sheriff’s office at (812) 247-3726.
