What is the procedure and process once an offense has been reported?
Reports submitted online will be reviewed within two business days. A Telephone Reporting Unit officer will review the report for completeness. An officer will contact you by e-mail or telephone for additional information or to provide you with the status of your report. If your report is accepted, the officer will provide you will a case number. A public copy of the report should be available on ePRO in about 7-business days. The report is then entered into our records management system and routed to the appropriate supervisor for review. A supervisor, or his/her designee, will review the report and if enough information exists to investigate further, the report will be assigned to an investigator. Otherwise, the report is put in an inactive status. This feature is intended to be a convenience to citizens and visitors to report minor crimes that most likely will not result in an immediate arrest. Interaction with police personnel will be minimal.
