I am extremely proud of the work by the Findlay Police Department Emergency Response Team, Findlay Fire Department TEMS team, and the support provided by the Hancock County Sheriffs Office. An additional shout out to Campus Polleyes for donating lunch for the team. This was an unfortunate and extremely stressful situation that our team executed impeccably. I am grateful that though these situations are uncommon our team trains to be prepared for every situation to keep the public and our team members safe.
