Falmouth town manager Michael Renshaw has announced that the police department's surplus of 26 shotguns will be destroyed rather than used as trade-ins for future guns.
The shotguns have a trade-in value of $4,125, but instead of trading them in the town's police department will give them to the Massachusetts State Police Crime Laboratory in Maynard, which will destroy them at no charge to the town, Renshaw told selectmen.
Renshaw said he is following a revised policy of the town for disposing surplus police firearms. He had the fair market value of the shotguns posted on the town manager's landing page of the town's web site:
Former New Jersey governor, former Republican presidential candidate, and former Trump supporter Chris Christie is the scheduled commencement speaker at Endicott College next month.
"With examples like leading the people of New Jersey through the devastation of Superstorm Sandy, Governor Christie is known for putting people before politics and working in a pragmatic and bipartisan way on issues that benefit the people he has served," said Endicott College president Steven R. DiSalvo in a written statement released Wednesday, April 3. "His personal story of overcoming adversity, his commitment to public service, and his candor about today's political environment will inspire the Endicott Class of 2024."
