Victoria police to get improved body cameras

The Victoria City Council approved on Tuesday enhancing the cameras worn by police officers as well as those in interrogation rooms and patrol cars. The council entered into an agreement for $1.2 million with Axon Enterprise for the purchase of digital recording devices, software storage and improved Tasers to assist the police department. Evidence storage with a digital footprint also would mean better evidence collection. Axon Enterprise, which is based in Scottsdale, Arizona, has supplied the Tasers, officer-worn cameras and in-car cameras used by officers in the Victoria Police Department for eight years.
