Our Story

To keep our community safe and thriving, everyone must do their part. Whether simply keeping a watchful eye over a neighbor’s house while they are away, or committing to patrolling the streets, we all have a vital role in Crime Watch. The more quickly we communicate with Dallas Police when a suspected crime has occurred, the more effective we become in reducing crime. What better way to do that than reporting suspicious activities? It’s as easy as calling 911 when something just is not right. Please take time to consider how you can become involved in our neighborhood safety campaign. Everyone benefits when neighbors get involved. Whether a renter or a homeowner, this is our home, and we can take reasonable steps to keep it safe and prosperous.

How to Report Suspicious Activity
