What should I do in an emergency? • Be prepared – have a plan • Have emergency contact numbers • Know the evacuation routes • If you call police, be prepared to give them the following : • Your name • Location and extension number • The situation – describe clearly and accurately • Your needs • If you believe a crime has occurred, you will be asked: • Suspect location • Description • Direction of travel • Information about victims • DON’T HANG UP!

How can you help District Police? • Be our eyes and ears • Be vigilant and observant • Report any suspicious activity, persons or vehicles • If it doesn’t feel right, it probably isn’t! • Call law enforcement right away • District Police x 7654 • From cell phones: 911 • From desk phones: 9-911
