CINCINNATI (FOX19) - Eighteen new cameras will soon be installed along Covington’s riverfront in an effort to improve safety.
The cameras will be installed between the Licking River and the Brent Spence Bridge, giving Covington police officer’s some help in an area that’s challenging to patrol.
“It’s basically just giving us the ability to have additional eyes along the waterway,” Covington Police Lt. Col. Brian Valenti said.
