It has been a terrible start to the new year for Massachusetts police officers. We have always cherished our close relationship with local police departments and first responder agencies. So hearing the loss or near loss of one, especially in Massachusetts, it affects all of us. Our deepest thoughts are with the Uxbridge, MA officer killed in the Line of Duty and the 2 Hinsdale, MA officers shot. Be safe out there!
