NNS reporter Edgar Mendez joined WGLB-AM 1560’s “Morning Mix” to talk about the impact of changes to the Milwaukee Police Department’s chase policy. Last year, police chases nearly tripled with accidents occurring in more than a quarter of chases. But, what’s worse, chasing or not chasing?
They also discussed the District Attorney’s investigation into the Milwaukee Health Department’s Lead Abatement Program, and specifically, whether former commissioner Bevan Baker was being scapegoated for the dysfunction that occurred.
The Morning Mix airs Mondays and Fridays starting at 8 a.m.
