Watchdog Group Launches Billboard Campaign

Don't Run-Atlanta billboardsA police watchdog group called the Atlanta Citizen Review Board is behind a new billboard campaign starting today in Atlanta.  The group says it’s an effort to save lives.  They say they are trying to reach not only young black males, but also the general population with their message of “Don’t Run.”

A spokesman for the group says they want people to know that they don’t have to run from or fight with police, no matter what the situation may be.  They say to call them and they will investigate and stand up for citizen rights.

The Atlanta billboards start today citywide, with a concentration on the southwest and east sides of the city.
