Are SUNY Police Officers trained at the NYSP Academy or do they have their own academy? Do they recieve the same training as State Troopers? Are they a division of NYSP or SUNY? Thanks in advance. Photo Courtesy of SUNY Cortland University Police SUNY Purchase PD

If the truck is registered with DES and was assigned an identifier... does it have to have a trunked radio? I think Yes. WESTCHESTER COUNTY EMERGENCY SERVICES APPARATUS PLATE ASSIGNMENTS I believe the WEMS Ambulance at Bedford Hills Correctional has a trunked too. The Transcare busses in White Plains (31A1, 31A2) and New Rochelle (30A1, 30A2, 30A3) all use the trunk when responding mutual aid. The Empress units assigned to the Grasslands Reservation (87A1, 87A2) have trunked radios. I believe certain SOD units also have trunked capabilities. I think STAT Flight has trunked capabilities as well.

Nice Photos!!! Go to the first Post... Click 'edit'... Click 'Full Edit'... Change title on top. That should do it.

Great game guys! Can't imagine how crazy Sherwood's was after the game

1. Like tbendick said, It's part of the NYC-Metro 800mhz trunked system 2. REMSCO = Regional Emergency Medical Services Council 3. Yes! Lots... For more info on the Metro NYC Trunked sysytem, go to Radio Reference I believe the system is EDACS

Yes, however, it's replacing MA28 so it should have the same uses. Edit: If you read the 1st post, It states it's uses (Medical, Brush, Rescue).

Check out their website... under the "current apparatus" tab, it lists each trucks' specs, equipment carried and uses. http://www.montrosevafd.com/

The Dodge Avenger almost crashed into a house on Milton road before coming to a stop in the yard. 1 female occupant remained in the vehicle while the other occupant ditched the vehicle and fled the car on foot, running towards a heavily wooded area. The fleeing criminal triggered a manhunt which lasted for several hours. He was described as a male black, aproxamiltly 6 feet tall wearing a blue jacket. Rye PD sent out a Nixle message, with the description also requesting that people call 911 if they see any suspicious activity. During the manhunt, The Rye High School/Middle School Campus and the Midland Elementary School were placed on lockdown for about 2 hours. Search was called off by NYSP when K-9's had lost the scent and they felt the perp left the area by car. Rye PD received multiple "suspicious person" reports during the afternoon. At aproxamiltly 5:30 in the evening, a subject matching the given description was reported IFO Playland Market (Intersection of Playland Parkway and Forest Ave). Multiple RPD units responded and questioned the individual. He was placed under arrest after the description given by NYSP matched his’. Multiple tattoos confirmed he was the suspect they were looking for. He was transported to RPD HQ where custody was given to NYSP units. Neither have yet to be charged with any crimes.
