Message From Your Precinct Captain

Our mission is to unite through action to create ONE MOBILE, a safer city for all residents.

If you see suspicious activity in your neighborhood, call the police department at 251-208-7211. We need your voice and continuous support to aid us in our efforts to serve and protect. Together, we can progress our community through self-initiative and accountability. Most crimes are prevented by vigilant citizens who take the time to notify law enforcement when they see something that doesn’t look right.

Through our WeTip program, you may also submit an anonymous tip 24/7 by calling or texting 844-251-0644. In case of an emergency, always call or text 911.

Your active participation is crucial in ensuring the safety and well-being of our community. By staying vigilant and promptly reporting any suspicious or criminal activity to law enforcement, you contribute significantly to our collective efforts. Let’s unite in our commitment to serve the members of our community and foster progress through self-initiative and accountability.

To further enhance community safety, I urge everyone to adopt a proactive approach by consistently locking vehicles and refraining from leaving keys, weapons, and valuable items inside them. It is essential to be mindful of not leaving cars running and unsecured. Help spread awareness by sharing this message with others.

In addition, recording the serial numbers of weapons and valuable property is of utmost importance. This information is vital in aiding law enforcement in locating offenders. By taking these preventive measures, we strengthen our ability to address and prevent crime in Precinct One.

Together, let’s create a safer and more secure community for all.
