Optional Online Police Report System Unveiled

The police website has a new page for reporting low-level property crimes.  If an officer is not needed at the scene, residents may report property thefts of less than $500, property-damage crimes, car break-ins, and identity theft. 

After the report is filed it goes to a supervisor for review and approval.  Then the approved report is sent to the record management system to be investigated just like any other police report.  This process can be convenient, for instead of waiting possibly for hours for an officer to come take a report, residents have the option of filing this way.  Of course, if there is an emergency, call 911.
