Local NewsPD Unveils New – Old – Look for Units
(Deming) – The Deming Police Department recently unveiled a new – old – look for its police units. Chief Bobby Orosco said the department is returning to the classic black-and-white squad car look for two recently purchased 2018 Dodge Chargers. Orosco said they kept the uniform patch logo on the vehicles, but the rest of the look is the iconic “retro” police car image. Orosco said the two new vehicles were budgeted as replacements for squad cars, and are among four vehicles to be purchased this fiscal year. The other vehicles are a truck and a detective’s unit. Orosco said the two new units have been patrolling for a week or so, and he intends to continue with the classic look for future departmental vehicle purchases.
