Residents across the region are advised to prepare for another round of weather challenges as a strong cold front approaches, bringing gusty winds and low relative humidities. The National Weather Service has issued several advisories and warnings, urging caution and preparedness.
Henrico County police modified its response to specific service calls and how they are dispatched.
“In the past, our patrol officers have routinely been put in positions or responded to calls for service where they have no legal authority. At times, this has prevented our officers from responding to other priority calls in a timely and efficient manner while also leading to a lack of units available to respond to any given call,” said Henrico Police Chief Eric English in a YouTube video.
