L.A. police outline security plans at Dodger Stadium

LOS ANGELES -- Los Angeles' police chief says there will be zero tolerance on misbehavior at Dodgers games.

A week after a San Francisco Giants fan was critically beaten following the season opener, Chief Charlie Beck, Dodgers owner Frank McCourt and several politicians held a news conference Friday to talk about future security at the stadium.

Beck says short-term security measures include more police officers. The Dodgers will pay for it.

Long-term strategies will look at technology, observation posts, lighting, environmental studies and increased community outreach.

Beck promised a safe, family-friendly, fan-friendly environment at Dodger Stadium beginning with the next game on April 14.
