WASHINGTON -- A bill under consideration by the D.C. Council would require police service revolvers to have miniature cameras to record how the weapons are used.
The camera technology would be activated whenever a police officer draws his or her weapon.
Council member Harry "Tommy" Thomas introduced the bill Tuesday.
He said it would provide a clear record for both police and citizens on how police weapons are used.
The bill was assigned to the council's judiciary committee for further review.

When was the last time a cop in D.C. carried a revolver? I think the DC Council may be a bit behind the times!
