Oshkosh, Winnebago County Receive Police Grants

Congressman Tom Petri reports that the U.S. Department of Justice has awarded a $10,000 grant to the City of Oshkosh to purchase tasers.  "The funds should enable the police department to equip all its officers on duty with this tool, which is designed to increase officer, public and offender safety while enforcing the law," he said.

As part of the same grant, the Winnebago County Sheriff's Department will receive $1,264 for traffic safety equipment.
