“It’s something I’ve looked at for a while, and I thought it was great because it’s such a comprehensive approach to public safety, which is something I deeply believe in,” Memphis Mayor Paul Young said about Omaha 360. (Mark Weber/The Daily Memphian file)
“When I look at my success as chief, I’d like to push it off to what 360’s done, personally,” the police chief of Omaha said of Omaha 360, the model for Memphis’ new violence intervention and prevention framework.
