The Massachusetts State Police will be introducing a new body camera pilot program in an effort to initiate a series of operational reforms, state police superintendent Kerry Gilpin announced in a press release Monday.

Boston police officers issued over 500 citations for traffic violations over several days last week on and around Day Boulevard in South Boston. These actions came after a 2-year-old boy was killed in July in a chain-reaction crash on the intersection of L Street and East Sixth Street.
