Suggested program to curb Kenwood loitering near high school
A plan discussed by Kenwood High school community members and police would have patrol cars check IDs of people looking suspicious around the school. Officers would use discretion and not overemphasize ID checks, focusing on nonstudents. The measure mirrors a program at Martin Luther King High and aims to reduce gang recruitment while keeping the area open to legitimate activity. Feedback will go to the juvenile protection committee of the Kenwood PTSA and interested groups.
