Effective Thursday, the Roanoke City Sheriff’s Office said they will offer a new “safe exchange zone” location to citizens.

According to deputies, the “safe exchange zone” consists of two designated parking spaces. Both spaces are highlighted in yellow and are located in the parking lot adjacent to the left side of the Oliver Hill Justice Center, located at 315 Church Ave SW.

These two parking spaces are under video surveillance 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, with parking being restricted to those utilizing the zones, deputies said.

Deputies also said Sheriff Antonio D. Hash felt it was important to give citizens a safe place for exchanges.

"After a collaborative discussion with Chief Roman, Judge Rogers, and Chief Judge Clemens, it was agreed this space will be utilized to execute custody transfers, exchanges from online purchases, and/or other private party transfers where safety may be a concern or there is a need for recorded video surveillance," deputies said.

If someone involved in an exchange is not willing to meet at a “safe exchange zone,” the transaction may be worth reconsidering, according to deputies.

If help is needed between 8 a.m., through 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, the public is asked to contact 540-853-2580. For emergencies, dial 911.
