Anchorage police say they'll train officers to use body-worn cameras in phases. If the contract to buy the cameras is approved tomorrow, the first batch of 30 cameras is expected this fall, with more than 300 to outfit all officers by the end of 2024.
Police patrol cars sit in a row at the station in downtown Anchorage on August 31, 2022.
“By the time we do our test period, we’ll start receiving additional cameras and it’ll be a slow progression where the people that need cameras will have cameras.” “I’ve seen so many written reports that are just a few lines that don’t even begin to capture what really happened,” Curtner said. “And that’s why I’m really concerned about, when we do have a shooting in Anchorage — and I can’t imagine we won’t someday — people are going to want to know where the body cams were.”
