Delaware Cunty officials are increasing law enforcement presence in Chester, in an effort to curb gun violence.
Stollsteimer says adding state police in a "…focused, deterrent strategy," is one step to making Chester residents not just feel safe, but flourish. "Really be a presence. We’re just making sure the folks who live in Chester see that law enforcement is there to serve them and if we can disrupt some violent activities along the way, we are happy to do that."
Crime in Chester is trending down. Homicides are down 38 percent from last year. But, some wonder if outside officers are the real solution."You have state police coming in. It’s kind of a detached force, so to speak, so we kind of have some concerns regarding that, but at the same time, if you need help, you need help," father and resident Rashaad Abdus Sabur commented.
