City police plan expanded community policing program
Kansas City Missouri detectives in street clothes and officers with cell phones will join a city wide move to expand community policing. Eight measures include area command with captains in charge of neighborhoods, flexible schedules, and teams engaging leaders, businesses, and high call areas to increase accountability to the public. A deputy chief calls it a shift to broader community contact. In Arkansas City Kansas a 13 year old boy was taken into custody after a bus driver detected a smell and found a Molotov cocktail on a school bus, the student to be charged with criminal use of weapons.
