Nonprofit Operation Safe Shield set to raise money for multiple law enforcement agencies surrounding San Antonio to install bulletproof glass on vehicles.in areas surrounding San Antonio don't have bulletproof glass on their vehicles but that technology could be the difference between life and death.
The glass is 3A rated which means bullets from all handguns up to a 44 will not make it through. Authorities will be protected from anyone shooting from outside in but also have the ability to shoot through the side windows from the inside out. “It’s worth it’s wait in gold…it gives the officer that split second to get out of the vehicle," Patrol Sergeant for China Grove Police Dept. Daniel Vickers said.
The initial scope of operation will be to equip all law enforcement departments in Brazos County including Bryan Police, College Station Police, Texas A&M University Police, Blinn College Police , Brazos County Sheriff’s Office and all Brazos County Constables.
