The Latest Stories For You From Salem Reporter
Good morning, Salem.
The Salem Police Department announced Thursday that its officers will have body-worn cameras starting next week.

Department policy now requires that all patrol officers and detectives working in the field have body cameras, which will cost around $400,000 a year. Find that story below.
