Reporting Suspicious Activities
Remember, your JSU Police would rather be called and not needed than needed
and not called!
- Remain calm. Keep away from the suspicious person(s) or activity and
avoid taking any risks. Notify the JSU Police Department, dial 911.
- Give your name, address, and phone number. The university police need
to contact you for more information later. If you prefer, you can remain
anonymous.
- Tell the police whether the crime is in progress or has already been
completed. (if you see a crime in progress, report it immediately. If you
wait, the police will have a much more difficult time apprehending the
suspect).
- Be prepared to give the following information: A description of what
happened (time, place, was anyone injured...). A description of the suspect
(sex, age, race, weight, distinctive characteristics)
- A description of any vehicle (s) involved, license plate number if
possible time and direction of escape
- Additional details and circumstances (if any).
