 The Montclair Township Police Department is flying the flag at half-staff today in observance of National Peace Officers Memorial Day.
In 1962, President Kennedy proclaimed May 15th as National Peace Officers Memorial Day and the calendar week in which May 15th falls, as National Police Week. Established by a joint resolution of Congress in 1962, National Police Week pays special recognition to those law enforcement officers who have lost their lives in the line of duty for the safety and protection of others.
The Montclair Police Department lost two officers in the 1970s. Sergeant Alfred L. Sellick, Jr. lost his life on January 12, 1976 while trying to disarm a gunman during a bank robbery. Patrolman Raymond T. Busterda died September 29, 1972 when he was struck by a vehicle while on a traffic post directing traffic.

 Welcome to the Montclair Police Departments 2012 Annual Report. In last year’s report I spoke about budget shortages in law enforcement, reduced work forces, and the tough economy we all were trying to cope with. We worked hard addressing those challenges while continuing to provide the public with a quality police service, balancing effective enforcement and service with an eye on operational costs.
