JAMESTOWN, N.D. (NewsDakota.com) – The Jamestown Police Department (JPD) is asking for your support to get a special computer that helps solve modern crimes.
According to a post on the Jamestown Police Department Facebook page, JPD has a chance to win a new Forensic Computer to “expedite the process of extracting, analyzing, and preserving digital evidence”.

The JPD deals with new crimes like cyber fraud and identity theft. They want a special computer with special tools to make it easier to solve these cases. Right now, officers have to drive long distances to process digital evidence, causing a big backlog in cases. Getting this computer will help fix that problem and improve the officers’ jobs.

JPD is up against 4 other departments for a chance to win the computer.
