JACKSON, Miss. (WJTV) – Jackson City leaders are considering a decision to move the Jackson Police Department’s Precinct 4 from Colonial Mart. Councilman Ashby Foote said many neighbors have expressed concern about the change.
“Particularly in the last nine to 12 months as the crime epidemic has taken place, and we’ve had increasing gunshots heard in that vicinity,” he said.
Police Chief James Davis said conditions are not suitable for officers at the current precinct and moving the location does not mean losing officers.
“You won’t be losing any police services. We just have to find a location that is suitable for the men and women in Precinct 4,” Davis said.
