PCSD Operation Desert Silence in full effect

The Pima County Sheriff’s Department (PCSD) has launched an operation to stop illegal gunfire and unauthorized off-road vehicle use near a westside Tucson neighborhood.

The operation, called Operation Desert Silence, targets activity on Arizona State Land Department (ASLD) property behind Eagle Point Estates, near Valencia and Valhalla. The state land department recently banned recreational use of the desert in that area, and PCSD is now enforcing the ban.
