PEORIA - The
Peoria Housing Authority is looking to buy more surveillance for its
communities.
According
to Peoria Police Chief Steve Settingsgaard, PHA has contacted his department
about obtaining an armadillo surveillance truck for PHA communities only.
Peoria Police
own two of the vehicles and say they are looking to purchase a third.
The vehicle
would be owned by police, but the housing authority would pay to upgrade and
operate the vehicle. Police officers would operate it.
Settingsaard
says Brinks Inc. security will sell the department a truck for $10.
