SANTO DOMINGO.-  The National Police begins Operation Safe Christmas today, aimed at protecting the population from holdups and assaults during the holiday  festivities, said its spokesman colonel Nelson Rosario.

The official said important details will be announced on the operation today Monday, in a ceremony slated for the Police headquarters esplanade.

He said around 10,000 extra agents will be in the streets to patrol the most vulnerable areas, especially in the business districts.

Rosario said as the holidays draw nearer, the number of agents will increase. "We guarantee the citizen security in the entire country, and each citizen can be calm in those days, because all the police agents will be in the streets, protecting the lives and properties of the citizens."

Thousands of extra cops on the streets for the holidays. And not one interested in improving the safety of the public.

Where on earth do you come up with 10,000 "extra agents". Or are the extras all the extra Generals and Colonels with nothing to do.
