Owens Community College receives donated patrol vehicles
Two dozen retired Ohio Highway Patrol vehicles have recently been donated to The Owens Community College Department of Criminal Justice. Ohio State Representative Haraz Ghanbari donated the vehicles for Owens to use for its Ohio Peace Officer Training Academies program. “This contribution greatly enhances the training capabilities at Owens and supports their mission to prepare future law enforcement professionals,” Rep. Ghanbari said. Around half the current fleet of training vehicles are aging with high miles, according to Mark King, manager of Ohio Peace Officer Training Academy in the Department of Criminal Justice. However with the cost of vehicles, the academy is unable to purchase new vehicles yearly. The donation will allow the academy to rotate the older vehicles out with the incoming donated vehicles. owens.edu/news-releases/tag/ohio-highway-patrol
