April 1968: State Troopers

In this gallery, we're hoping to learn more about the events that shook Trenton between April 4th and April 10th, 1968, after the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. -- specifically through the actions and experience of the state police. Besides newspaper photographs we don’t have many images, but are lucky to have these photos of the state troopers and their command post at Eggert's Crossing. We'd love to know more about this state police activity and the people pictured in this collection, both officers and civilians. Click on the first photo to begin.
