Strasburg Police Alert Residents About Donation Letter Not Tied to Department

| August 24, 2026

STRASBURG (WJER) (Aug. 24, 2026) – The Strasburg Police Department is telling residents to ignore a letter being mailed to village homes that is asking for donations to help pay for bulletproof vests for Strasburg police officers.

Police say that letter – that says it’s from the U.S. Deputy Sheriff’s Association – is not connected to the Strasburg Police Department, and the department is not involved with the mailing or soliciting donations through that organization.

Residents who receive the letter are being asked not to call the phone number listed, not to send money, and to simply throw the letter away.

Anyone with questions or concerns about the mailing should contact the Strasburg Police Department directly.
