NYPD's Evolv Weapons Scanners Detect No Guns, 12 Knives in 30-Day Subway Pilot
Oct 24, 2024, 07:06 PM
The New York Police Department (NYPD) has confirmed that the Evolv weapons scanners, which were piloted in the subway system this summer, detected no guns during a month-long trial. The pilot program, initiated by Mayor Adams' administration, lasted for 30 days and resulted in the detection of 12 knives but no firearms. The NYPD had previously withheld this data for months before finally releasing the results, which have been described as 'objectively a failure' by critics. The Evolv scanners were part of an effort to enhance security in the subway system, although their effectiveness has been called into question following these findings.
