• MEDICAL CALLS: We post to public locations only (i.e. Jack In The Box, etc) where the public would be. We do not post medical calls to private residences.
• ADDRESSES: Round down to the nearest hundred/thousand. (i.e. 3219 becomes “3200 block of”)
• AGES: Round ages down to the near tenth. (i.e. 36 year old male becomes “Male in his 30s”)
• SCHOOLS & ASSISTED LIVING: We do not post medical calls to these locations, as we don’t want their switchboard filling up with concerned family members every time they see their family’s school or assisted living. Non-medical and any citywide concern for information, would be OK to post (i.e. Bomb Threat, Fire, etc.).
• UNIT IDENTIFIERS: For first responders’ safety – we do not post unit identifiers on the post. We simply say “Police en route to…”, “MCSO en route to…”, “Fire Dept en route to…”
• HIGH PROFILE CALLS: You may from time to time hear a high profile call (i.e. Bank Robbery Alarm), etc. We wait to post those until the officer gives the CODE 4 (incident under control).
