Santa Clara Police Showcases Snazzy New Crime Scene Vehicle

SANTA CLARA, CA -- The Santa Clara Police Department is going more mobile.

The force recently bought a Crime Scene Investigation vehicle, which is meant to transport evidence team members from the police department to crime scenes, critical incidents and traffic crashes with injuries.

The van-like vehicle will store necessary tools and equipment to process a crime scene in a timely manner. This enclosed workspace will allow staff to collect, preserve, inventory, package and transport evidence.

The $186,000 vehicle was funded with Citizens' Option for Public Safety grant funds.
