Lieutenant Chris Longo

The members of the Lawrence Township Police Department share the grief of the horrific act of violence in Uvalde, Texas. Our condolences and prayers are with the victims’ families as well as the Uvalde community.
While there is a high level of confidence in our school security efforts, Lawrence Township Police Chief Brian Caloiaro has been in contact with school district officials and has coordinated additional safety precautions. An increased police presence at all private and public schools in Lawrence Township has occurred. The safety and security of our schools is paramount and is well coordinated. The strong partnership between the Lawrence Township Police Department and the Lawrence Township School District has provided the means for a collaborative effort to ensure the safety of our school children.
Please remember to stay vigilant and report suspicious activity immediately.
