The Boston Police Department’s District A-1 recently took the lead in a community outreach event designed to bring holiday cheer to children in need. The annual Toys for Tots Cruiser Convoy organized by the district, included a coalition of 19 participating agencies, and a fleet of 37 vehicles, operated by 46 enthusiastic members from various organizations.
