Donora police will soon have a shooting range in Palmer Park where officers can train, practice and complete their yearly qualifying tests.
Superintendent Jim Brice said there was a shooting range installed in the park in the 1990s that was used for about 15 years before it was shut down.
Brice said he had talked to the late Karen Polkabla, who was in charge of parks on council, about reopening the range. She was supportive and brought it to council, who agreed to it, but the process stalled, Brice said.
