Durham Police Mobile Command Post

Saw this last week, along with other tactical trucks at the Durham police station. (Photo by WRAL, found on Google.) Not a new vehicle, just new to me. International chassis, body by EVI. See these factory photos showing both interior and exterior views. (Thanks Jeff!)

From the DPD 2008 annual report, the truck was dedicated in August 2008. The $300,000 truck was purchased using asset forfeiture funds and is "equipped with full motion video capability and full radio, a conference area, computer workstations as well as a mini kitchen and bathroom."

Other DPD tactical trucks include these three, which were featured in a 2009 posting and a 2003 posting about the SET unit. The latter is a former Parkwood ambulance. See this Flickr gallery of mine, of other special police vehicles.
