MILO Simulator at BPD – Thank you, Bexley Community Foundation!

by

The Bexley Police Department would like to thank the Bexley Community Foundation for awarding us a grant to purchase the MILO Training Simulator.

The MILO simulator provides realistic judgmental training, enhances situational awareness, and provides training on how an officer’s approach to an incident can escalate or deescalate a situation. The MILO will benefit the community by providing state of the art training to their police officers in addition to the education tool it will provide to individuals that participate in the Bexley Police Academy.
