LAKEWOOD, OH After an 18-year-old was hurt in a shooting at Madison Park on Tuesday evening, members of Lakewood City Council swiftly proposed improved safety measures for the park and city.
In a letter shared to social media, Councilperson Tom Bullock called for an expanded police presence at the park immediately, including having an officer at the park seven days a week during open park times. He also called for: adding cameras to the park, full-staffing of the neighborhood policing units, and an open dialogue with county officials to secure their support.
