We had a great time taking part in the annual Route 66 Car Show and spending the day with our community along historic Route 66!
From our officers and Police Explorers to our Honor Guard, we were proud to be part of another great Berwyn tradition. A special thank you to the community members who stopped to say hello, showed their appreciation for law enforcement, and shared so many great conversations with our officers throughout the day.

Upon arrival, officers found the front door glass shattered.
