 WASHINGTON - Mayor Tony Williams is supporting efforts by D.C. Police to start putting surveillance cameras near crime hotspots. Police Chief Charles Ramsey has said he'd like to add cameras in such areas to help police disrupt drug activity and other crimes, but he'll have to work with the D.C. Council to address privacy concerns before cameras can be used in city neighborhoods. Williams says that most people are already under the watch of cameras for many hours every day -- when they go to banks, supermarkets, airports and other places. He says a community should be able to use cameras as well to keep commercial districts safe. Williams says crime and youth issues are top priorities for his last year in office.
