Ohio law enforcement asked to inventory gear for extra that could be donated to Ukraine - Cleveland 19 News

CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) - The governor and the Ohio National Guard requested that law enforcement agencies across the state take inventory of their personal protective gear for any surplus that could be donated to help Ukraine during the Russian invasion.

Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine sent out his request in a letter last week to all state and local law enforcement departments.

“I know many of you share my concern for the Ukrainian military men and women who are bravely fighting against the senseless aggression of Russia,” Gov. DeWine wrote in the letter. “I encourage all Ohio law enforcement agencies that have surplus or expired personal protective gear to answer this request for information. Your response could result in help that could save lives in Ukraine.”

The request applies to body armor or helmets that are in excess or expired. Potential donations would be offered to the Ukrainian military as Russian troops continue their attack.

Any equipment that is collected would be validated and the a plan for how to deliver the items to Ukraine would be developed.
