The Justice Department on Friday said it had expanded its a law enforcement initiative aimed at driving down violent crime in inner cities to Indianapolis, Indiana.
Over the past few weeks, the department has made several public moves to show it is cracking down on violent crime across the country. It launched Operation Legend, a law enforcement program where federal resources are surged to inner U.S. cities to assist local and state law enforcement officials to tackle violent crime and restore public safety. The program was named after 4-year-old LeGend Taliferro, who was shot and killed while sleeping in his home in Kansas City, Missouri.
