Crimes
in Progress
-
Do not attempt to apprehend or interfere
with the criminal except in the case
of self defense.
-
If safe to do so, take the time to
get a good description of the criminal.
Note
height, weight, sex, race, approximate
age, clothing worn, method and direction
of travel, and name if known. This
takes only a few seconds of time and
is of
the utmost value to investigating
officers. If the criminal uses a car
note the license
plate, make, model, color and any
outstanding characteristics.
-
Call the University Police at 9-1-1.
Give your name, location, and reason
for calling. DO NOT HANG UP. The
Police Dispatcher may have additional
questions
for you as they are sending police
units to the scene.
-
In the event of a civil disturbance,
continue inasmuch as possible with
your normal routine. If the disturbance
is
outside, stay away from doors and
windows.
-
Do not interfere with those persons
creating the disturbance or with
law enforcement authorities at the
scene.
