CPD Awarded $700,000 Federal Grant For Crime Gun Intelligence Center Wednesday, January 27, 2021
The Chattanooga Police Department’s pursuit of criminals who endanger community members with the illegal use and possession of firearms along with its progressive use of technology and partnerships has earned the department a $700,000 federal grant, said officials.
Chattanooga Police Department Sergeant Josh May submitted the grant proposal to the Bureau of Justice Assistance resulting in Chattanooga becoming one of just 26 cities awarded the funding to replicate the ATF Governing Board’s CGIC best practices. Every day I’m talking with people who’ve been rattled by gun violence and wanting help,” said Sgt. May. “Not only people who’ve been shot, but the others who were narrowly missed and the kids who are hearing gunshots outside their homes while trying to sleep.”
