Princeton Mayor Mark Freda said on Thursday that local police are prepared in case there are any incidents this weekend as law enforcement officials across the state and the nation brace for possible armed marches at state capitols on Sunday.
“The police department has taken steps to react as necessary,” Freda said.
Princeton Police Chief Chris Morgan has planned for any possible situations that arise. The police will have extra resources on the weekend, and extra officers will be on call in case an incident escalates, Freda said.
“Princeton is part of the Mercer County Rapid Response Team. We assist each other and can reach out quickly to other departments to send other officers and bolster our police presence quickly if that becomes necessary,” Freda said.
