City Council Reviews Stop-n-Frisk Tactic
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — A Philadelphia City Council Committee held an all-day hearing Tuesday on police conduct, including the controversial tactic known as “stop and frisk.”
Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey testified that the majority of pedestrian or vehicle stops his officers make do not escalate from “encounters to stop and frisk.”
Ramsey says their training techniques include an emphasis on de-escalating situations, like ethics training, or scenarios in which officers are trained in firearms instruction.
