Statement Regarding Events During the Chisholm Trail Roundup Parade

The City of Lockhart and Lockhart Police Department are aware of the inaccurate statements made by local organizations regarding the No Kings events planned to take place on Saturday. To be clear, the City did not state that it would instruct police officers to arrest protestors for exercising their constitutionally protected rights.  Public safety for all participants is our number one priority, especially during a historic and family-friendly event like the Chisholm Trail Roundup. The Lockhart Police Department (LPD) will be present at the parade for traffic control and security purposes. The LPD does not and will not enforce parade rules that have been set by parade organizers.
