The Wichita Police Department has received a donation of 10,000 face masks that will be distributed to citizens through four police substations.
The N-95 masks were donated by Air Capital Distribution. Officer Paul Cruz said the masks will be available at the North, South, East and West substations, but citizens are asked to call the substation before going to the substation to pick up a mask. He said people should also give priority to those that are high-risk or who might not be able to afford a mask.
The phone numbers are
Patrol North – 3015 East 21st – 316-350-3400
Patrol South – 211 East Pawnee – 316-350-3440
Patrol East – 350 South Edgemoor – 316-350-3420
Patrol West – 661 North Elder – 316-350-3460
The masks will be available Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
