VOICED: Ahead of elections, Venezuela tries to tackle violence

The video discusses the challenges faced by police officers in Sucre, Venezuela, as they patrol on foot to connect with the community and combat crime. Despite limited resources, officers risk their lives to reduce crime rates. Venezuela has seen a significant rise in homicides, with unofficial data suggesting 19,000 murders last year. The government is reforming the police force, leading to a 50% drop in homicides in some areas. Community response to these efforts is mixed, and crime remains a top concern in elections.
