I just have a question. There\u2019s some video cameras that the police are using, and some news outlets that reporting that you\u2019re gathering intelligence with those cameras. Can you elaborate, like if the protesters at this point, you know, retreat and go home, are they going to be getting sort of repercussions down the road? Are you going to be sort of actively pursuing the people that you\u2019ve been sort of documenting and filming who are still out there protesting? What are your plans after this after the protest is over?<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>STEVE BALL, POLICE CHIEF: Thank you. It\u2019s a great question. And the simple answer is yes.
