Public safety program described by two Texarkana officers
At a Monday luncheon at the Sheraton Inn Texarkana police Captain Bob Nixon and Fire Chief Jim Cowart described a merged public safety program. Officers are cross trained in police and fire duties and work from roving patrols with constant radio contact. The system aims to cut response times and reduce fire losses and crime, with 5 percent of time spent with fire and 95 percent with police, and inspections for fire prevention and crime prevention recommended.
