You have recently been appointed as the chief of police of a large urban police department. One of the primary problems your department is facing is the increasing gang and drug activity in the downtown area. Citizens have complained that the gangs have
vandalized the buildings and taken over abandoned houses in the neighborhood for drug activity and prostitution. There has also
been an increase in violent crimes including assaults, drive-by shootings, robberies, and homicides. As the chief, you have to decide
how to address these issues.
