By Austin Carter, CBS Miami June 24, 2021 South Florida law enforcement officials are reacting to Miami-Dade Mayor Daniella Levine Cava's visit with President Joe Biden to discuss gun violence. "It's disappointing. Violent crime is impacting a big portion of this country but its disproportionately impacting big cities," said Miami Police Chief Art Acevedo. "And to not have the big city chiefs there – we're already off to a challenging start." Chief Acevedo spoke on CNN Wednesday, saying he wished to have been part of the president's meeting with representatives from across the nation to discuss gun violence.
