A Texas sheriff's department is showing off its newest cruiser and thanking an unlikely source, KTRK reported.
In a tweet, the Fort Bend County Sheriff's Office said the vehicle was funded by seized drug money.
We’re proud of how our new wheels turned out! Be watching for it at schools and recruiting events. 100% funded with drug seizure money.
