Local business fund police helmets

May 23, 2010

The East Lansing Police Department recently was awarded $2,200 in funding from local businesses to purchase new headgear for officers on duty.

The four Nolan N43 Trilogy helmets for the ELPD motor unit feature “full face” shielding to protect the officers and increased crash, hearing and UV light protection while riding. The previous helmets did not cover the face in full, covering only about half.

The Allstate Insurance Company, American Eagle Superstores, Meijer Inc. and the Fremont Insurance Company each contributed to the department.
