ID-A-KID is Friday

COEUR d'ALENE - The Kootenai County Sheriff's Office will be offering "ID-A-KID" at Target in Coeur d'Alene on Friday.

Between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m., sheriff's office personnel will fingerprint and photograph your child or children, with all information given to the parent for safekeeping.

No information will be retained by the sheriff's office.

"The photograph, fingerprints and other identifying information can be a valuable tool for law enforcement if the child is ever missing," Gary Shults, community service officer, said in a press release.

The sheriff's office is providing this service free of charge, and after a child goes through the identification process, they will be given a free cookie by Target.
