📰 News we're reading

• Loudoun County Police Issue Statement On Switch To Encrypted Radio Communications (patch.com) — Local residents should know that the Purcellville Police Department, along with other Loudoun agencies, is moving to fully encrypted radio communications by this fall, ending public scanner access. Officials say the change protects victim privacy and officer safety, while critics worry it reduces transparency. Agencies promise to keep sharing information through alerts, news releases, and social media instead of open radio traffic.
