Legislation is making its way through the process in Baton Rouge to let the Shreveport Police Chief make a change to 12 hour shifts from the current 8 hour shifts.
We have just received results of a petition signed by nearly 200 officers who oppose moving to a 12 hour day.
Results released to Shreveport Police Union from an early April email survey showed 42% of the officers supported a 12 hour shift.
During a conversation with KEEL earlier this month, Chief Raymond discussed why he wants to have the option to go to 12 hour days. But he makes it clear he has not made a decision about whether or not he will make the change.
