A recent Dallas police operation in partnership with the U.S. Marshals Service resulted in more than 160 arrests.
Dallas Police Chief Daniel Comeaux says Operation 'We Got You' targeted violent criminals.
"We are not waiting for violent criminals to strike again," Chief Comeaux said. "We are going after them, finding them, and taking them off the streets."
The operation began on April 1st and lasted through May 5th.
162 people total were arrested and more than 80 remained behind bars.
"This particular operation consisted of elements from our patrol divisions, our fugitive unit, and the U.S. Marshals North Texas Fugitive Task Force," said Dallas Police Sgt. Shelden Smith.
Police say these types of operations are leading to a reduction in crime in the city.
