As a general practice, the Carlisle Police Department encourages ride-alongs. Individuals are permitted to participate in police ride-alongs in order to facilitate or enhance educational programs, assist members of the media, promote a positive department image, allow government officials to gain first-hand knowledge of department operations, or otherwise provide an opportunity for individuals with legitimate interests to observe department operations.
Individuals interested in participating in the Ride-Along Program must complete an application. Applications must be returned to the Carlisle Borough Police Department, 240 Lincoln Street, Carlisle. Applicants must be 18 years of age or older and agree to a background check. Questions about the Ride-Along program can be directed to Lieutenant Steve Latshaw at
717-243-5252.
