Phone Numbers and Contacts

Emergency number
Don't hesitate to use this number in an emergency. Follow up later with Officer Thomas or Napolitano so they can add the incident to their files.
  911
 
Non-emergency number
Use this number for reporting suspicious, but non-emergency, behavior. You'll have a little more time to make a report than you'll have with 911. Then give Mike Thomas a call so he's aware too.
  625-5011
 
Officer Mike Thomas
Officer Jack Napolitano

These officers are assigned to our area and will compile information for a clearer picture of what's going on. If you know something, give them a call -- don't assume they already have the information.
  386-9112
