On June 6, 2013, Captain Jason Johnson and Lieutenant Matthew Meterko attended an annual meeting with the Maryland Vehicle Theft Prevention Council.  Our commanders successfully negotiated the significant increase in grant funding for fiscal year 2014.  The additional $110,000 will cover overtime, equipment and a new analyst.  Vehicle thefts have dropped 14% in Prince George’s County this year.
