The Berkeley Police Review Commission (PRC) recently voted to open an investigation into whether the police response at and following the June 20, 2017 City Council meeting on Urban Shield was appropriate, and to create a subcommittee for this purpose.

We are also asking for anyone with relevant video footage of the end of the Council meeting or events immediately afterwards outside of Longfellow to forward the video footage to us. Contact Katherine Lee, PRC Secretary, at 510-981-4960 or email prc@cityofberkeley.info for more information on how to submit video footage.
