Columbus PD rebrands department-wide
SUMMARY: The Columbus SWAT team in Mississippi has recently been equipped with new gear and uniforms, thanks to creative funding efforts by the police chief. The team, consisting of 10 members with three openings, is well-trained and prepared to handle high-risk situations like search warrants, hostage rescues, and active shooters. The outdated equipment and uniforms were replaced with the help of a Homeland Security Grant and a generous donor. The rebranding of the police department includes providing new uniforms for patrol officers to improve professionalism and accountability. The ultimate goal is to make Columbus a safer place for its citizens.
