Christie: No Big Military Toys For CPD

Sgt. Christie Wood (RE: Local cops now have 2 big vehicles): Coeur d'Alene PD has not initiated a similar purchase but thanks to the mutual aide agreements in place Chief Haug will likely authorize our use of it if we ever had a major incident such as active shooters within a large public building. It is designed as ballistic protection in order to get officers closer to the threat in as safe a manner as possible. The agency heads have no intention of using this kind of equipment in day to day operations.

Thoughts?
