Crime Mapping Software Assisting Local Police Force

It's been almost 3 months since City police began using the online tool CrimeMapping.com.
The software identifies the type of crimes happening in any given neighbourhood.
Deputy Chief Bruce Connell tells CHSJ News it encourages public involvement.
He says one of the options is the public can email the department about crimes in their neighbourhood.  He adds the force can then send units out to those areas for follow-up.  You can register for alerts about crimes in your neighbourhood.  To sign up, click here
