A Note about Suspicious Activity

See Something, Say Something: The CCSO strongly encourages citizens to report suspicious activity. If you become concerned about something in your neighborhood or at a business, trust your instincts and call the police.

Often, when officers canvass a neighborhood as part of a crime investigation, neighbors say they saw suspicious activity but did not call because they were unsure, did not want to bother us, or assumed someone else would call. In many cases, that call could have helped solve or prevent a crime.

Remember: Never talk yourself out of calling the police if you see suspicious activity — you might be the key to stopping a crime.
