Most officers with the Tallassee Police Department will soon be SWAT certified thanks to a $150,000 grant.
The Alabama Department of Economic and Community Affairs (ADECA) is administering the grant from funds made available by the U.S. Department of Justice. The training, equipment and vehicle afforded by the grant will allow the Tallassee Police Department to more effectively respond to situations where it might have had to wait for help in the past.
