Niagara County Auxiliary Police unit dissolves

LEWISTON, N.Y. (WIVB) — A public safety resource in Niagara County will no longer be available. The county dissolved the auxiliary police after failed efforts to compromise with volunteers about carrying firearms.
The unit has been around for several years. All members of the unit are volunteers. There’s about 12 to 25 volunteers with one duty, directing traffic during events.
Director of Emergency Services, Jonathan Schultz says the volunteers were concerned about their safety.
