CAMP OSCAR FLORENDO, La Union– The fight against criminality in the province received a boost with the assignment of brand new patrol vehicles to the police stations of Alcala , Malasiqui, Umingan and Bolinao.

Chief Superintendent Romeo Hilomen, the newly installed regional police director, said the procurement of new cars and motorcycles is part of the program to improve the “move, shoot, communicate, and investigate” capability of the Philippine National Police nationwide.

The regional command received a total of 23 vehicles (16 Toyota Hi-Lux 4×2 patrol jeeps, five Toyota Altis patrol cars and two 200cc Honda motorcycles) that were distributed in various towns. .

The police stations in Alcala , Malasiqui and Umingan each  received a patrol jeep each while Bolinao got a Toyota sedan.

Hilomen, speaking during the turnover ceremonies on April 4, called on the officers and men of PNP Region 1 to conduct more aggressive patrol operations and respond more quickly to calls for police assistance.

“These patrol vehicles must be used to improve our services and to show that Mamang Pulis is ready to serve and act swiftly at all times,” he said.#
