Asset Forfeiture Buys 2,000 Trauma Kits for Colorado Officers

In the coming months, 2,000 police officers around the state of Colorado will receive individual first-aid kits (IFAK), Colorado Attorney General Cynthia Coffman announced Thursday.

Coffman said the kits, which cost about $60 each, are being paid for using money from an asset forfeiture fund, the Aurora Sentinel reports. She said she hopes to make the program an ongoing effort so more officers around the state will have access to the trauma kits.
