Barr says U.S. deploying federal agents to 9 more cities after “recent upsurge in crime”

by

U.S. Attorney Gen. Bill Barr provided an update in Kansas City, Missouri on Wednesday on “Operation Legend,” which utilizes federal agents to assist local law enforcement in what the AG described as a “recent upsurge in crime.”

The operation was named after 4-year-old LeGend Taliferro, who was shot and killed inside his home in Kansas City, Missouri, on June 29, 2020.

Barr announced Wednesday that the operation has been expanded to nine U.S. cities with more than 1,000 additional officers from the FBI, DEA and ATF being assigned to help local law enforcement track down wanted suspects.
