Dallas City Council will consider an extra layer of protection for its police force this week.
Based on the July 7th police shootings, a review of options for additional protection for police officers by high powered rifle rounds was conducted.
Ballistic panels for the doors of police vehicles offers a high level of protection for officers, police said.
If approved, it would cost the city $209,672. The additional safety feature would become standard on future purchases of police units.
