| Free mobile app to store photos and vital info about one’s childrenWashington, D.C. – The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has launched its first mobile application—the Child ID App. This free mobile app provides a convenient place to electronically store photos and vital information about one’s children that can be easily provided to authorities if a child goes missing.
The app allows users to send information—including pictures or other physical identifiers such as height and weight—to authorities with a few clicks. It also provides tips on keeping children safe and guidance on what to do in the first few crucial hours after a child goes missing. The Child ID App is currently available for use on iPhones and can be downloaded for free from the App Store on iTunes. The FBI is planning to expand the tool to other types of mobile devices in the near future. Resources: Learn more about the FBI’s Child ID App at www.fbi.gov/news/stories/2011/august/child_080511.

Save Time and Quickly File a Crime Report Online
Suisun City, CA – The Suisun City Police Department E-Services continue to be enhanced with the latest launch of the online reporting system. Individuals may file reports for harassing telephone calls and identity theft. Additional reports types will be available in the near future.
The system allows members of the public to file a report at a convenient time without having to wait for an officer to respond or call them back. Individuals can print a temporary copy of the report upon completion. Once the final report is approved, a copy will be e-mailed to the individual at no cost.
The system will allow officers more available time for proactive enforcement and patrol, while providing a convenient solution for members of the public. This system is part of a suite of E-Services available at the Suisun City Police Department’s website, including the ability to apply for an alarm permit, request extra patrol, pay a citation, and obtain a copy of a traffic collision report.
As with all the E-Services, the new online crime reporting system is optional. Individuals who desire personal contact by an officer may still contact the Suisun City Police Department at (707) 421-7373.
