Police union seeks removal of marked patrol cars
Kenneth T. Lyons president of the International Brotherhood of Police Officers urged that air marked police cars and patrol wagons be withdrawn from high crime areas to prevent officers from becoming sitting ducks. He called for unmarked vehicles with bulletproof windshields, officers in civilian clothes, and backup cars, saying police are frontline targets in a war of assassination. The appeal came in a letter to Sen. Eastland FBI Director Hoover and the IA CP amid a judiciary subcommittee hearing on ambushes and bombings as lawmakers push federal crime penalties.
