Putting a name and a face on UCR stats
During the past couple of months, Police1 has been closely following the new body armor standard introduced in July by the NIJ. The new standard, NIJ Standard-0101.06, Ballistic Resistance of Body Armor, is intended to ensure that the vests police officers wear will continue to protect them as the material ages. It also reminds us of the importance of wearing your vest every time you go out on patrol.
