Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania tests out its law enforcement surveillance camera system
At the beginning, video surveillance systems for public law enforcement were limited to large cities like New York and Chicago. But things are changing. In medium-sized cities and towns across America, surveillance systems are helping law enforcement officials to capture criminals, monitor weather conditions and more. Now Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, once the location of Babe Ruth’s record-breaking home run, has introduced its own video surveillance system. It may not be a big city, but approximately 42,500 people call it home, and according to local law enforcement, that’s big enough to warrant an advanced surveillance system like Chicago’s.
