Beefing Up Police Presence Across The City

7/26/2012

In wake of the recent rash of gun violence, Police Presence will be beefed up across the City.

Police Chief Bill Blair is putting more cops on the streets to patrol in high risk neighbourhoods.

It'll begin at next weekend's Caribbean Carnival parade.

Blair says over 400 extra officers will be downtown during the event.

350 cops will be dedicated to the parade and the same amount will work the following weeks until September.9th.

Officers will likely be filling in plenty of overtime hours but Blair says it will all fall under his existing budget.
