Murrieta Police Department Lt. Jeremy Durrant told Fox News Digital in a statement that the Lego Group requested that it stop using Lego heads in their social media posts.

After the Murrieta Police Department used yellow Lego heads to hide the identities of suspects in a mug shot, the toy company has asked the department to cease the practice.

The toy company Lego asked a Southern California police department to refrain from using the company's toy heads to hide the identities of suspects in photos shared on social media.
