Rockland to consider gun buyback program

POMONA – Law enforcement in Rockland County will consider holding a gun buyback program.

Rockland Sheriff Louis Falco, who said the department has done it before, is looking into doing it again.

“That would take guns that we don’t even know about”, says Sheriff Louis Falco off the streets which makes the police and law enforcement officials safer as well as the public,” Falco said.

Orange County is in the midst of a program with guns being returned to police departments in the three cities.  The Orange County program continues through mid-March.
