Houston police hope a new mobile command center will help fight crime in the city’s most dangerous neighborhoods, KPRC Local 2 reported Thursday.

U-net, which stands for Unified Neighborhood Enhancement Team, is a police station on wheels where officers can access information and process criminals.

U-net was unveiled Wednesday at a substation on Fondren and West Bellfort in southwest Houston.

In a Lone Star Times exclusive, Matt Bramanti managed to get a photo of the U-Net van in action.
