JACKSON, Miss. – The Jackson Police Department is taking a proactive approach to crime prevention by incorporating advanced technology into their operations. Among the new tools being utilized are blue light surveillance cameras and license plate readers, aimed at enhancing public safety and improving response times to incidents.
