DELAWARE STATE POLICE

Delaware State Police - Damaged SWAT Vehicle

I placed this vehicle at the top of the page to remind the civilians that visit my page that police work is a dangerous job. To the men and women who work the streets its a reminder that there are no indestructible vehicles out there. Be careful.

Photos come from the collection of Robert Ward.

Here are his attached notes:

Took some photos of the D.S.P. SORT (SWAT) armored car -- just as a reminder that not all negotiations end well.
 
This was a stand-off with a retired C.H.P. officer.  The white tabs are markers to show where the where the 22 shots hit the truck.  Not sure what type rifle it was.
