Dave Norman, of the Miami County Sheriff’s Office, left, and Paul Veneroni, of Piqua Police Department, retired, get a sneak peak at the county’s new armored rescue vehicle during the bi-annual retirees breakfast for Miami County Sheriff’s Office employees at StoryPoint in Troy on Wednesday, May 22. The vehicle, a custom built Lenco Bearcat will be used, primarily by the sheriff office’s tactical team. Sheriff Dave Duchak said he would like to thank the county commissioners for agreeing to purchase the vehicle which replaces its 40-year-old predecessor and will be available to protect deputies and citizens for another 40 years.
