New Police Cruisers Debut in Limerick Next Week
The new cars are expected to be on patrol soon.
Limerick Township police showed off photos of two new patrol vehicles that will be joining the force's fleet next week.
The department was scheduled to replace two patrol cars this year, and they chose to go with the new Police Interceptor model. The painting is being done by Pizzico Signs, Inc., which posted photos on its Facebook page.

The new patrol cars kept the green-and-white color scheme, and one more special detail - the shamrock on the fender.
"[T]he Shamrock stayed by popular demand!" the police department said on its Facebook post.
