Cleveland Police body camera training is now on-going for officers in the city’s second district. More than 200 officers will get the body cameras over the next two days.
The training marks the second of five police districts to receive body cameras.
Cleveland’s fourth police district started using the uniform mounted cameras back in early February.
Second District Police Commander Tom Stacho believes the body cameras will be a big influence in improving the behavior of officers and the public they serve.
“I think this is really going to give an opportunity for the public to see what our officers go through day in and day out,” said Stacho. “Every officer must announce to residents that they are being recorded, and I believe that will make a difference.
