THE COPS DIRECT STORY

"With funding shortfalls preventing us from obtaining urgently needed medical equipment for our tactical team, Cops Direct donated the equipment we needed and then some, while allowing us to leapfrog the red tape. In the last year we have seen a violent crime explosion like nothing in recent memory, and when we had expended our donated equipment, Cops Direct was there to restock us. This equipment has helped us treat and save several people and an injured K9 during the last year. With our operational tempo showing no sign of slowing down, we are fortunate to have Cops Direct standing behind us and keeping us equipped with the equipment we need to save lives..."

"On behalf of the Spring Valley Police Department, I wish to thank you for recently awarding Our Police Department a donation of life saving trauma kits. Thanks to your generosity, we were able to obtain trauma kits for every one of our Police Officers, specialized trauma kits for every member of our lactical leam and a go-bag containing numerous trauma kits to use in a mass casualty incident. Unfortunately, Spring Valley is plagued with guns and violent crime and has been designated as having one of the highest rates per capita in New York State. Your donation will, no doubt, help keep our Police Officers and the public sate should they fall victim to traumatic injury such as receiving a gunshot wound or from being stabbed. Because we are an impoverished community, we would not be able to purchase this equipment on our own. Thanks again for your support."

"I recently learned or your organization from reading Soldier Systems Daily and the work you’ve done in equipping officers and agencies with medical kits. Most of our deputies have individual med kits, but one area we’ve had trouble getting needed equipment is at our range. We do have a trauma kit along with basic first aid supplies, but both kits are located in our main office and we have 40 acres of training area that we use. What we’d like to be able to do is to have 3-4 separate kits, each located at one of our ranges and contained in a marked ammo can. Ideally, each kit would be able to address either a couple of patients or multiple gunshots. Please let me know if you’re able to assist or have any other ideas that would be of help."
