Dragnet S02E28 - The Big Problem
Dragnet (1967)
S02E28 The Big Problem
Episode Overview
The focus is on community relations as Friday and Gannon work to bridge the divide between the police department and the community it is dedicated to serving. This rift is particularly pronounced between the African-American community and the mostly Caucasian LAPD. The tension escalates when a young, slightly militant black man chooses to barricade himself in his apartment rather than comply with a traffic warrant.
