ATF mobile unit rolls into Jackson
SUMMARY: The new technology in a truck, demonstrated by Chief Wade, aims to address gun violence and generational trauma in Jackson, where 28 homicides were reported in the first four months of 2024. The federal government is partnering with local police to use the NIBIN mobile unit to match shell casings to guns used in multiple shootings, aiding in investigations and prosecutions. US Attorney Todd Gee stated that the NIBIN tool is crucial in identifying guns shared by gangs and removing violent individuals from the streets. The program, funded with a $700,000 grant from the Department of Justice, has received support from both Jackson and Capitol Police, who hope it will become a permanent solution for the city.
