REPORT ALL CRIMES!
Crime in PROGRESS? CALL 911!
If you see something
suspicious:
Write down a
description of the suspicious person(s). Height, weight, age,
clothing, complexion, tattoos, whatever you notice. Also, the
make, model, color and license plate number of the vehicle.
CALL the
Houston Police Department Dispatch (713) 884-3131 OR 311 and
they will send a patrol officer to investigate.
What is suspicious?
Basically
anything that seems even slightly "out of place" for the area or
the time of day or night.
What should you report?
Every report generated by
HPD in our area gives the potential of more patrolling in the
neighborhood. In addition it also lets other homeowners know
what is going on and what to look for.
You can
e-mail us your
security issues and we will send out to everyone.
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED FOR CITIZENS ON PATROL
In the past our
area had experienced an increase in burglaries of houses,
burglaries of cars, car thefts and other crimes. Since the
induction of our Citizens on Patrol we have seen a decrease in
crime.
To continue to keep our
neighborhood safe we
are re looking for volunteers who are able to patrol the
neighborhood for a minimum of 3 to 4 hours per month. There will
be training involved. The COP participants responsibility is
only to observe and report situations (without intervening) that
require emergency responses by the police.
We can make
this program a reality but we need citizen volunteers.
If you are
interested in volunteering your time to make our neighborhood a
safer place, please send your name, address, e-mail address and
telephone number (with best times to call) to
COP@northbrookpoa.com.
once we have a sufficient number of volunteers, we will arrange
an informational meeting on the program with HPD.
