REMEMBER:

Community members only serve as the extra “eyes and ears” of law enforcement. They should report their observations of suspicious activities to law enforcement; however, citizens should never try to take action on those observations. Trained law enforcement should be the only ones ever to take action based on observations of suspicious activities.

Report:

• Suspicious activities, people watching vehicles

• Illegal activities

• Unusual events or incidents

• Dangerous situations

What is Suspicious

Activity?

Anything that feels uncomfortable or looks

out of place.
