SWATARA TOWNSHIP, Dauphin County — The Swatara Township Police Department’s effort to raise public funds to help pay for its new K-9 Unit got a helping hand from a local business, the department announced Monday.

Swatara Township police are seeking to raise $40,000 toward the K-9 Unit, which will got toward funding a new K-9 officer, training, and necessary supplies for the unit.
The K-9 Unit will aid the department with investigations, drug searches, missing children/persons, school searches, criminal apprehensions, and community outreach programs.
