Don’t be alarmed if you see police near Vantage Point and 2597 E. Aurora Road in Twinsburg Aug. 12.
There is a planned Metro SWAT training event, so there will be SWAT officers in gear and SWAT vehicles present, according to a Twinsburg Police Department Facebook post. Officers from Summit and Portage counties are part of Metro SWAT.
“Officers will be working through a variety of realistic scenarios to sharpen the lifesaving skills they may one day need during an actual emergency,” the post says. “The best time to prepare for a critical incident is long before one ever happens.”
