McMinnville Police Department is establishing a critical response team.“I think in the world today, law enforcement has a responsibility to be able and capable to respond in the event the worst-case scenario happens and that’s what we’re trying to do,” said McMinnville Police Chief Bryan Denton. The city’s discussions in establishing the critical response team began more than a year ago and the team will be ready to go this year. “We are about six months away from going live or maybe a little earlier than that,” said Denton.
