WARREN The Warren Police Department will be purchasing four body cameras that will be worn by officers patrolling city streets.
Other Valley departments, such as Girard, Niles and the Mahoning County Sheriff’s Department, are also using cameras worn by their officers.
The idea of these cameras is endorsed by Valley community activists, including pastors, civil rights leaders, mayors and law enforcement.
The Warren cameras are expected to be assigned to police cars, so they will be spread among multiple officers on any given day.
Councilwoman Helen Rucker, D-at Large, and Cheryl Saffold, D-6th Ward, have long advocated for the city to purchase the cameras. Earlier this year, both police Chief Eric Merkel and Mayor Doug Franklin spoke in favor of purchasing the cameras.
