The Adams County Sheriff’s Office has acquired an Armored Rescue Vehicle from the US Military.
This vehicle will greatly assist our regional Tactical Response Team made up of various agencies in our area to include the Moses Lake Police Department (Host agency), Grant County Sheriff’s Office, Quincy Police Department, Ephrata Police Department, and others.
Adams County Currently has three members assigned to the team.
The TRT team is called when there is high risk situations and others involving the rescue of persons to include law enforcement. This team is special and handles many situations with precision and excellence.
We are grateful for this aquisition, it places a vehicle in our area of Adams County for a more rapid response. Currently these resources need to respond from Ephrata or Moses Lake and valuable time could be lost.
This rescue vehicle will be available anytime it is needed or required.
