The city reported that the vehicle has been transferred to Wicomico County Public Schools for use in the Criminal Justice and Collision Repair programs.
City officials, including Chief Meienschein and Mayor Randy Taylor, joined students and school staff for the unveiling of the recommissioned training vehicle.
