Aliquippa Police Chief John Lane talks about the new cameras
Chief Lane said 36 ALPR cameras have been put in place  at key locations in the city . The ALPR’s are used to identify vehicles  and individuals involved in crimes in the city. More will be placed in the city in the future, the chief said
Chief Lane said drug forfeiture funds are being used to pay for the ALPR’S  and many agencies are involved in the project. Mayor Dwan B. Walker  said at Wednesday night’s meeting the cameras   are installed at no cost to the school district or the city.
Both men agreed the LPR’S are  just another way to keep  the  CITY OF ALIQUIPPA safe.
