Officer Brian Bannerman recently sent an important message reminding us to call 911 to report all suspicious or criminal activity. Please refer to these Crime Prevention Tips for more information.
Dear Citizens,
I recently received second hand information about a suspicious incident that may have occurred in the Highland Park area. This incident may have involved an assault or attempted theft. Because it was not reported to the police, I have no details to investigate.
Please understand that when crimes go unreported, it only benefit the criminal. Our Crime analysts use reported crimes to identify crime patterns and trends in a particular neighborhood. Police resources are allocated after reported crimes, patterns and trends are reviewed by our Command staff. Therefore, no additional resources will be sent to address an issue that has not been reported.
PLEASE report all suspicious or criminal activity immediately by calling 911. This may keep your friends, neighbors and yourself from becoming a victim in the future.
In addition, please review the attached crime prevention tips to deter crime.

Tips from the Rochester Police Department to help you avoid becoming a victim of robbery this holiday season.
1) Make certain that the inside and outside of your home or business is well lit. Motion sensors and “dusk to dawn” lights are good tools for this task.
2) Always keep your doors and windows locked. Criminals will take advantage of an unlocked point at your home, garage, or even while you are driving your car. Keep everything locked up!
3) Never keep or carry excess cash or property if you don’t need it. Use a drop safe at your business, and leave unneeded valuables at home if you are going out for any reason.
For more tips, see the full bulletin on our Safety page.
