When Police are Needed....

CALL 911: If it doesn't look right, feel right, sound right, it probably isn't right. Call 911.
All 911 calls are prioritized. The details you provide in a 911 call will help the operator determine how to prioritize your call. The response to your call will be very different if you say, "I saw a suspicious man. He's Caucasian, and is wearing shorts and a T shirt." VS "I saw a man riding a red BMX bike zigzagging slowly back and forth on the street. He is spending too much time looking at each house and seems to be looking at the front porches. |
I belong to my Neighborhood Watch and he does not live on our street. When he saw me watching him, he took off fast heading north on Marion at Linden. He is Caucasian and wearing brown baggie pants and has a white T-shirt and a red ball cap."
MAKE THE CALL, even if you think police will not be able to arrive in time. The ONE way to 100% ensure police will not arrive in time is to not make the call to 911 in the first place. 1. You don't know if there is already an officer in the area who is able to respond quickly. 2. Your 911 call creates a record that will be added to the system which lets police know that that type of criminal activity is happening in our neighborhood. Police cannot do anything about a problem if they do not know where the problem exists. REPORT ALL CRIME-- EVEN THE SMALL STUFF! A pot stolen off the front porch, a hose stolen from the back yard, mail theft, a blow up snowman from your front yard. Again, police can do nothing unless they know a problem exists. Even more importantly, Police Incident Reports are one of the factors used by police to determine how much and what type of police coverage an area receives. It's easy and quick to report crime. Phone numbers and the link for reporting crime.
