CARROLLTON, Texas (KTVT) — Carrollton police are adding a new tool to their arsenal. They’ve been given special kits to help them respond to people on the spectrum. “In the case of an emergency, we are going to encounter autistic citizens who either don’t recognize the danger that they’re in or the danger has overwhelmed their senses, and we need to find a way to make a connection with them,” Sgt. John Martin said.
