Decatur, Illinois Police Department to Evaluate COPsync Network

DALLAS, Jan. 11, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- COPsync, Inc. (NASDAQ: COYN) today announced that the Decatur Police Department in Illinois will conduct an evaluation of the COPsync Network™. The COPsync Network is an advanced communication and information sharing system that protects citizens from violence and domestic terrorism. Community and officer security is increased with advance warnings of dangerous people and real-time notification of crimes in progress. The COPsync911™ threat-alert system safeguards schools and keeps America's children safer and protects other high-risk targets such as courthouses, government buildings and energy infrastructure. COPsync's systems can save minutes when seconds count, save lives and protect citizens and communities.

Decatur City Manager Timothy Gleason stated, "One of the most important functions of city government is providing for the safety of residents and visitors. The City of Decatur is committed to exploring products and services which could potentially enhance our ability to do so."

"I place a high priority on both the safety and accountability of my officers. Any product that could potentially improve both of those things, as well as give us the ability to share information with other agencies and jurisdictions more quickly, is worth looking into," continued Decatur Police Chief James Getz.

Sergeant Christopher S. Copeland noted, "In the coming weeks, we will be conducting an intensive evaluation of the COPsync product, involving numerous officers and supervisors across all shifts, to determine how it meets the needs of the Decatur Police Department. The COPsync product has a number of features we are interested in, particularly with regard to officer safety and ease of use."

Mr. Ronald A. Woessner, CEO of COPsync commented, "Decatur is proud to call America's heartland home, but its reach is undeniably global. Forbes ranked Decatur second in the country for having a thriving agri-business economy, while Business Facilities magazine ranked the Decatur area third for logistics hubs in the nation, a place where nearly $1 billion in capital investment is planned or underway in the region. COPsync is proud to partner with the city of Decatur for this evaluation."
