The Town of Fishkill Police Department has secured federal funding for body cameras.
Police Chief Keith Dworkin confirms that the funding will be utilized to equip every officer in the department with a body camera using the Axon Body Cams system, widely adopted by police departments across the U.S.
This development comes after initial funding for the project was announced last May but faced delays in processing.
Chief Dworkin underscores the importance of these body cameras in safeguarding officers and the public.
