"Indianapolis police soon will be able to monitor activity around the city via 22 pole-mounted, bulletproof cameras, plus others that can be moved from location to location.
A $1 million grant from the Department of Homeland Security will be used to buy the 22 cameras that will be placed permanently outside stadiums, water treatment plants and other places.
The city also will purchase an undetermined number of mobile cameras, The Indianapolis Star reported.
'We are adding officers to the streets and performing saturation patrols in high-crime areas,' Mayor Bart Peterson said. 'These cameras will be a great tool to complement those additional resources and increase police presence in neighborhoods.'"
