July PAC: SWAT!

Please join us for the MPD Second Precinct PAC.  July 13 at 6 PM  Monroe Village Community Room, 1900 Central Avenue NE

In May we had a look at one of the special SWAT team vehicles which was at the 2nd Precinct Open House.  Last month we met Nash, the K-9 assigned to the SWAT team.  This month we’ll learn  about the rest of the team.

The Special Weapons And Tactics team  is the team of MPD assigned to handle high risk situations.  These are the people who work with the Dept. of Homeland Security, and who are expected to be on the front line of extreme situations, whatever may occur.

Our presenter is  Sgt. John Sheneman, who is is also a supervisor at the Second Precinct.  He plans on making a 15 minute presentation and will then show some of the equipment the SWAT team members use

If there is something  you’ve been wondering about, you can ask St. Sheneman directly or send me your questions and I’ll see he gets them.

You can read more about the team at  the city website:

Following Sgt. Sheneman’s presentation, we will have our monthly report on trends and events in the Precinct, followed by Courtwatch.
