BACKGROUND:
First Precinct Sector 113 Lt. James Killingsworth and other Richmond
Police Department officers will participate in a walk through in Richmond’s
Eastview neighborhood at 5:30 p.m. today. During the walk, RPD officers
will speak with community members about safety concerns they may have and what
they would like to see from the Richmond Police Department.
Sector 113 Lt. Killingsworth said
members of RPD will be focusing on meeting and speaking with residents in the
neighborhood.
“We want to make sure we are continuing to reach out to those who live in this area,” Lt. Killingsworth said. “We spend a large amount of time in the housing communities and do not always get the quality facetime with these residents.”
This event is the latest in a series of walks conducted by the Richmond Police Department in neighborhoods throughout the city.
Members of the media
are encouraged to attend.
