KRDO - A new crime prevention program has kicked off in Pueblo, and it involves sharing personal security footage with police. The Pueblo Police Department PPD is expanding its Real-Time Crime Center with a new program that will allow residents to register their security cameras so video can be located quickly after a crime.
Titled the "Community Connect" program, residents and businesses can voluntarily opt in, simply letting police know they have a camera and its location. If a crime were to occur, police can see who has registered a camera in the area, and reach out to them for video of an incident. Providing a mechanism for the Pueblo Police Department to quickly request and receive video from citizens and businesses will result in increased efficiency and effectiveness," a representative with the police department wrote in a release.
Phase two of the program is slated to launch in Spring of , and will allow residents to share their live video feeds directly to the Real-Time Crime Center.
