HAVERHILL, MASS. (WHDH) – Haverhill police officers will soon begin wearing body cameras on duty.
The city council approved the agreement with the police union Tuesday night.
The move came six months after a Haverhill man died after a struggle with police officers.
Several officers were placed on administrative leave in the wake of Francis Gigliotti’s death; they were responding to a call of a man acting erratic.
Surveillance video showed him running in and out of traffic.
Gigliotti’s death was ruled a homicide, attributed to an abnormal heartbeat caused by cocaine and efforts by police to restrain him.
