'We're burned out': Temple police union says its understaffed, needs more support from school
PHILADELPHIA - The head of Temple University's police union says the department's morale is at "an all-time low" due to staffing issues that have left officer feeling burned out. The union says it has 63 active officers on the street when it should have closer to 100. The shortage comes at a time when the North Philadelphia community that includes and surrounds Temple University is embattled by gun violence. The union took to Twitter last weekend to call out Temple President Jason Wingard for his lack of help in developing a safety plan that includes adequate staffing.
