Crime Tracking On Internet
KENTUCKY...
Police in Covington have begun using an online database that allows residents to track crime in the northern Kentucky city. Police Chief Lee Russo says the city started using the system through Crimereports.com over the last month. He says it costs the police department about $400 monthly, but is free to the public. The system allows residents to go through CrimeReports.com and view an online map of Covington with markers showing where crimes happened over a specified time period.
Covington becomes the fifth in the state to use the service.
