North Strabane
Township Police
Department
The North Strabane Township Police Department
recently hired two additional police officers,
Cory Amhrein and Samuel Interval.
Officer Amhrein grew
up in the Beaver County
area. He attended La
Roche College, majored in
Criminal Justice, and was
a member of the baseball
team. As time passed, he
felt compelled to serve
his country and enlisted
in the United States Army.
He volunteered for the
Ranger Selection and
Assessment Program, an
intense training course
designed to test a soldier’s physical and mental strength
under rigorous conditions. He accomplished his goal of
becoming an Airborne Army Ranger, one of the highest
honors an Army soldier can achieve. When serving with
the 2nd Ranger Battalion Special Operations Unit, he was
deployed to Afghanistan in support of the Global War on
Terrorism.
Cory completed his tour of duty and was honorably
discharged from the Army. He then married his girlfriend
and pursued his lifelong dream of becoming a police officer.
He attended the Allegheny County Police Training Academy
and shortly after graduation was hired by North Strabane
Township. Cory is currently in our Field Officer Training
Program.
Officer Samuel Interval
grew up in Washington,
PA and graduated from
Washington High School.
He attended college at
Waynesburg University
and earned a Bachelor’s
Degree in Criminal Justice
Administration. He was
then hired as a Deputy
Sheriff of Greene County
and filled that role for
one year. Sam continued
his pursuit of a career in
the criminal justice field by attending Indiana University of
Pennsylvania’s Police Academy and was hired in January. He is
currently in our Field Officer Training Program.
Help save lives in
your community
Every day seven people die in home fires. Most of these
deaths occur in homes that lack working smoke alarms.
In an effort to improve those numbers and save lives, the
North Strabane Township Fire Department is joining with the
American Red Cross campaign called “Sound the Alarm”.
As part of the campaign, the Fire Department is installing
free smoke alarms, replacing
batteries in existing alarms,
and providing fire prevention
education to homeowners.
