CBS Dallas/Fort Worth November 6, 2021 Two weeks after we told you about crime concerns driving businesses out of Dallas's Uptown neighborhood, extra security patrols are coming to the popular entertainment district. While some welcome the plan, others question whether it's enough. The move to add private security officers in Uptown comes at a time when more business owners are fed up with the neighborhood and demanding change.

CBS Local Digital Media personalizes the global reach of CBS-owned and operated television and radio stations with a local perspective.
