The Trenton Police Department extends our sincere appreciation to the United States Deputy Sheriff’s Association (USDSA) for their generous donation of a RTS Tactical 14x24 Mini Shield to our Department.

This shield donation significantly enhances our readiness to respond to critical incidents while also increasing the safety and confidence of both our Police Officers and the citizens we protect. Ensuring the safety of our Police Officers is our highest priority, and thanks to the USDSA, we have been able to enhance that protective measure. This new equipment empowers our Police Officers to safely and effectively manage high-risk scenarios, ensuring they return home to their families after each shift and continue serving our community.

Through impactful partnerships like the one we share with the USDSA, the Trenton Police Department is increasingly equipped to deliver exceptional service to our citizens.
