Full Notification

The Middle Township Police Department has implemented protocols to take reports over the phone for minor non-emergency calls for service that do not require evidence to be collected or an on-scene investigation. Residents are encouraged to utilize this option if they have an incident meeting the above criteria.    Officers will continue to respond to all emergencies and calls for service requiring on scene investigation, this is only a measure for reporting of minor non-emergency calls for service. 
 
The Communications Operator will collect the contact information of the reporting party and an officer will make contact with the citizen in a timely fashion.   The goal of this temporary procedure is to help cut down on unnecessary contact with individuals as a means of reducing in-person contact and mitigating the risks associated with person-to-person transmission of novel coronavirus. We feel that because our officers interact with many people throughout the day, having them unnecessarily interact with residents, many of which are considered ‘vulnerable’, is a prudent and judicious approach to limiting a possible exposure.
