Interesting. I wonder if they changed their vehicle graphics. I saw a Dodge Charger on Watt ave by McClellan a week ago or so that was on a vehicle stop. The vehicle said "Police" on the side but I did not recognize the department. Was not the usual Grant PD graphics.

OK, so they are still using the old "GRANT" talkgroup? I've heard traffic on it since the 1st.

Highly possible. It could have been Folsom PD or another agency driving through the area. It's not uncommon to have outside agencies doing business outside of their respective area.

Yup, they're still there doing their business on Grant TalkGroups. SSD assisted them with a foot pursuit the other night. I just think their area of responsibility has expanded considerably
