Good Afternoon,
The Orlando Police Department has joined several other law enforcement
agencies across the nation to publish their crime data on the National Crime Map
at CrimeReports.com. Crime data sharing will
be a partnership within the community in achieving our
mission: Keeping Orlando a Safe City by Reducing Crime and
Maintaining Livable Neighborhoods.
Crime Reports is the largest and most accurate online resource for
up-to-date crime and sex offender information. Citizens can access the
intergrated crime map and recieve email alerts for free at www.CrimeReports.com. This is also a
free app on certain mobile phones. By providing this information to our citizens
and visitors, the Orlando Police Department believes it will significantly
enhance our crime prevention and crime reduction efforts.
As most of you are aware I, as a courtesy, have been emailing crime stats
to each neighborhood on a montlhy basis for each previous month. These
statistics have been helpful in keeping the residents in District 4 aware of
activity in thier neighborhoods. This new tool will allow everyone to see a
visual interactive map, crime data as to location, type, date, time and type of
crime and incident report number. You can view this information as narrow to
each street, neighborhood, or citywide and place date ranges on the information
you seek. The Orlando Police Department is committed to your safety. As always,
I encourage each of you to take personal action to help ensure your safety.
Also, please call 911 to report all supsicious persons or activity as you see it
occur. By doing so, and acting as the eyes and ears for OPD, we can continue to
work together to help reduce crime.
As always, if you need anything, please do not hesistate to contact me. If
you prefer, you may contact me to schedule free secuirty residential or business
surveys, conduct free crime prevention presentations, provide information on
neighborhood or business watch, as well attend neighborhood association
meetings.
Thank you, the residents, for doing your part in reducing crime.
