Tristan Meets the Pittsburgh Police!

A love of police vehicles + an invitation from Chief Scott Schubert to visit Pittsburgh Police HQ + a special demonstration by the various police speciality units = smiles for days!!

 We told the Chief about Tristan’s love for police vehicles and flashing lights and Chief said “Bring him on down — we have plenty of those around!” Tristan was greeted with the warmest of welcomes by Chief Schubert and members of the Pittsburgh Police! Tristan and family got a tour of of Police HQ, tried on some of their protective gear, and made many new friends — among them the mounted police, motorcycle unit, bomb squad, and SWAT!

Having this day to look forward to gave Tristan and his family something to look forward to and memories to hang on to forever. Thanks Pittsburgh Police!
