Lt. Brian Wolfe of the Pennsylvania State Police briefed the Londonderry Township Board on recent patrol activity and regional security coordination at the Aug. 5 meeting.
Wolfe said the troop received more than 1,800 calls of service in the preceding 30 days with about 800 requiring written reports. He summarized the period as involving 153 crashes (including five DUI crashes and one fatal crash), around 70 arrests, roughly 800 traffic citations and 700 warnings. "We have had a very busy year," Wolfe said, and he noted the troop’s involvement in large security operations tied to visits by former President Donald Trump and other high‑profile events.
