TIP2APD APP

We got a bit of an update through the leadership roundtable in February… the big take away is how short staffed APD is at this point… down 67 sworn officers… ~35%… which means response times are down as well as crime stats are going up… if you know anyone who might be a good candidate and is looking for a job, please send them their way! Also… the best way to communicate besides either 911 or the non emergency # 828.252.1110 , is thru their new app Tip2APD. or find incident reports etd @ Police to Citizen (P2C) tool.
