KIMBALL, Tenn. – City administrators said camera systems on police cruisers have become a technological necessity, and when they break down they must be replaced.
Kimball Police Chief Tommy Jordan said recently that at least seven of the town’s patrol car cameras were in serious need of replacement or repair.
“They are anywhere from 8 to 10 years old,” he said. “We’re starting to have some bad problems with some of them.”
At least three of the systems do not work at all, Jordan said, while others work only sporadically.
Kimball Mayor David Jackson said the cameras are a problem officials cannot ignore.
