Alexandria’s police body camera program gets federal boost

Police officers in Alexandria, Virginia, are the only ones in the D.C. region who don’t wear body cameras. On Friday, the effort to change that got a boost of federal money. A $600,000 grant from the U.S. Justice Department has been earmarked to help the city, according to a release from U.S. Rep. Don Beyer (D-Virginia). The money will be combined with other federal and local dollars the city is using to begin the $2.2 million rollout.
