(KWNO)-Multiple sheriff’s offices in Minnesota have donated equipment to aid Ukrainians in their fight against Russia.  

Fillmore County Sheriff John DeGeorge joined his counterpart in Steele County to send off equipment. The Fillmore County Sheriff’s Office says they donated 28 ballistic and tactical vests, along with 25 ballistic helmets.  

The vests are described to be in good condition and are only being replaced thanks to money the office receives through a grant every five years. The Anoka County Sheriff’s Office also donated vests, helmets, and shields to the Ukrainians.  

The Minnesota Sheriff’s Association says they have a contact that will ensure the equipment goes to Ukrainian fighters in need.
