SLPD working to improve security in the city

SAN LUIS, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY/T3) - The San Luis Police Department (SLPD) is working to improve security in the city and reduce crime in Yuma County.

Thanks to technology, they will be able to install a system of surveillance cameras in place where different crimes are frequently committed.

"We are obviously trying to get more technology. We recently received a camera system that we purchased. It is made for the purpose of surveillance, so if we have an area where there is a crime happening very constantly, we can go and activate these cameras. These cameras will be mounted in certain areas and they will be hidden."
