Plattekill
lauds its
police work

Supervisor Joe Croce noted that the
National Council for Home Safety and
Security has ranked the Town Plattekill
the 21st safest town in New York State,
which has 932 towns.
“I think that is something that we all
can be proud of,” he said. “Everybody
stay diligent and the big words today are
‘if you see something, say something’. I
think its a credit to our police force that
we’re ranked that high.”
Croce said the detectives recently had
a high case load, working on burglary 3rd,
assisted with adult protective services, a
forcible touching case that was closed
with a joint investigation by the NYS
Police and the District Attorney’s Office,
unattended death, burglary 2nd, fraud,
public lewdness, grand larceny 3rd, and
assisted the FBI and followed up on a
larceny case.
Croce said that all Plattekill Police
Officers have completed NARCAN
training and are equipped with the
NARCAN rescue nasal sprays, that can
reverse an opioid overdose.
Croce said Det. Robert Riley has
graduated another DARE class, “a
fantastic accomplishment...in educating
our youth of the dangers of alcohol,
drugs and tobacco.
Councilman Darryl Matthews attended
the graduation.
“All the kids were very interactive with
everything. The kids really appreciated
it, especially when they got to yell and
scream when Detective Riley gets them
going. It [program] works pretty well.”
