Police plan for changes at ’07 St. Patrick’s parade
Kansas City police may need more officers at next year’s St. Patrick’s Day parade and may need to distribute them differently.
Police also may want to add a third pedestrian crossing and encourage more officers to work behind the barricades, where the crowds are.
Those were among observations by Maj. Mark Dumolt, the police commander at this year’s parade, when he spoke at a police briefing Monday. Those attending discussed ways to improve policing for next year’s event.
