VICTIM SUPPORT

If All Members of the Community Become Security Conscious and Report Suspicious Activity, Thefts and Related Incidents Will Be Measurably Decreased.

What To Do If You:

 Are the Victim of a Theft


  • If items are stolen from you, there is little hope of recovering them unless you make a timely and complete report.

  • As soon as the theft is discovered, notify the police.  An officer will take a report from you.  Try to supply as much information as possible concerning the stolen property, including serial number, make, model and value.

  • The majority of thefts on campus occur because property was left unsecured or unattended.  It is estimated that over 80% of all thefts on campus could be prevented if everyone would lock up valuables.  This is the most effective way of preventing theft.

Are the Victim of an Assault


  • Notify the administration and law enforcement as soon as you can.

  • Try to remember as much about the person as possible.  Important characteristics include: sex, race, hair color and length; clothing description; scars or tattoos and other noticeable markings; mode of travel, vehicle type, color and tag number.

  • The campus will be search immediately for suspects and neighboring police agencies will be notified to assist.

 See Suspicious Persons


  • If you see anyone acting suspiciously, contact the school’s administration or a law enforcement department.  Do not approach the person yourself.

  • Report the type of suspicious activity and give a general description of the subjects (sex, race, dress, vehicle, and location).
