U.S. Rep. Elissa Slotkin on Friday announced a $360,000 federal grant for the police and fire departments that responded to the Oxford High School shooting last year.
The grant will be administered through the U.S. Department of Justice’s Emergency Federal Law Enforcement Assistance Program, which provides funds to address expenses tied to immediate responses, Slotkin's office said in a statement.
It covers overtime and other costs departments in Oxford and nearby areas incurred responding to the Nov. 30 rampage, which left four students dead and wounded six others as well as a teacher, according to the release.
