"Yesterday at Dendy our staff member saw the teen on the ground bleeding," said Brett Bessler, from union group Local 2186.He told Action News they had a plan to make rec centers safer, but it would cost an additional $18 million. "With that $18 million, we could have security guards at every rec center. We can have two full-time programming staff. We can add social workers and recreational therapists," said Bessler.. One of those cameras captured an image of the suspect in the Dendy shooting."When it comes to prevention we're just not sure," he said."We don't have the capacity to put an officer at every playground.
