Local Cops Ride in Police Unity Tour

The Police Unity Tour raises awareness and money for law enforcement officers who have died in the line of duty. The bicycle tour's motto, "We Ride for Those Who Died" asks each participant to raise $1,700 or more to give financial support for the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial.

Six NBPD police officers are riding 320 miles, from New Jersey to Washington, D.C., to support this cause. Every fallen police officer's name in America appears on the memorial wall. It's an emotional moment when everyone converges on Washington on Monday, May 12.
