Sometimes I see something that looks suspicious, but I’m not sure it is. How do I know if I should report it?
If you see anything that seems suspicious, contact law enforcement immediately! If an actual crime is taking place, the sooner you inform law enforcement, the more likely they can take care of the problem. Don’t worry about bothering law enforcement or appearing foolish if what you have witnessed is not actually criminal activity. The Bowie Police Department wants residents to contact them whenever they see something suspicious.
