Instructions

1

Be observant, but not obvious. Pay attention to the activities and try to remember what the people involved look like, but do not make yourself noticeable.
2

If the situation is an emergency, such as when you see a weapon or there is a crime in progress, go somewhere safe and call 911. Give the operator as much information as you can. If it is safe to do so, wait nearby to speak with police.
3

Make a non-emergency phone call. If the situation is not life threatening or you don't see evidence of any crime, call the non-emergency line to report any suspicious activities. Leave your contact information for follow up.
4

Go to the police station and fill out a gang activity report. You may be asked to speak with the gang activity unit in your area. They may have you look at pictures of known gang members or copies of graffiti that may signal gang activity.
5

Follow up with the gang activity crime unit. If there seems to be nothing being done and you are scared for yourself or your family, follow up on your report and ask for action. Call your local representative if you don't receive satisfaction.
