If I see something suspicious or out of place and I’m not really sure about it, should I report it?
Yes. Even if the information does not result in an actual investigation, the information should be reported to your local police. Law enforcement relies heavily on the public to report any and all suspicious activity.
If I report suspicious activity, do I have to identify myself?
No. You may remain anonymous.
How can I help to keep my community safe?
If you see something, say something. Please report anything that looks suspicious to your local police department.
