San Jose police officers found to be staying in RV's outside HQ

With a police shortage in San Jose, coupled with mandatory overtime that adds up to 17-hour workdays, it turns out that at least a dozen officers are living in RVs outside of the San Jose Police Department.

Rather than making the trek to their homes, a few officers are instead choosing to stay in recreational vehicles between shifts, according to a new report by KPIX.

City officials are looking into possible solutions to the police shortage, and will decide on whether a state of emergency is necessary to shift some officers back to street patrol.
