Now Whitestown Police Departmentwill get a share of the seizure right Mike?..celia
Yes, our department gets a portion of drug seizure money. Have you seen the nice truck which was recently purchased for the Police department? It was purchased with funds from a previous seizure. It sure was nice of those drug runners to buy us a new vehicle wasn't it?
