Will County receives new mobile command center

Posted: Updated:

Will County police officers will be more capable than ever in emergencies, thanks to a new vehicle.

The Incident Command Center will serve as law enforcement agents' home base during emergency situations.

The 21-ton bus was custom-built for the county in Ohio.

Officials say it's so far advanced beyond previous command centers, that there's no comparison.
