The Humvee will assist police officers in high-risk situations, particularly during hurricanes and other emergencies.
The department bought the Humvee, which had 200 miles on it, a few months ago for $1,500 as part of a military-vehicle surplus sale. Then it was painted — changing the camouflage color to black. Soon, it will sport police lights, which were paid for through donations.
