Progress by Indianapolis Police With Precincts And Modern Gear
The Indianapolis police have improved greatly over the past year. Precinct cottages in four city sectors now house four bicycle patrolmen and two desk men each, with nightly rosters. The mounted unit expanded to 14 under Sergeant Metcalf, and the automobile patrols cover long distances with a fast National car. A new riot gun, enhanced interrogation room, expanded corner squad relief, and a modern Gamewell system complete a push toward a more capable force.
