New online citizen reporting system
Submitted by Douglas County Sheriff’s Office
Sheriff David A. Weaver is pleased to announce a new online citizen reporting system that will serve our citizens more efficiently and allow citizens to report certain crimes 24/7 online.
After nearly two years of planning, CopLogic, our on-line reporting system, was launched without public fanfare on September 26. The handful of reports that have been submitted since then have allowed sheriff’s office IT staff to de-bug some final details. The application is now sufficiently stable to allow full-scale use.
Using this online citizen police report system allows citizens to submit a report immediately and print a copy of the police report for free. The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office (DCSO) strives to make reporting a criminal offense as convenient for our citizens as possible.
The introduction of this new enhanced program does not replace officers; it merely allows a citizen to be able to file certain reports from the convenience of their computer 24 hours a day.
Only the following types of crimes can be reported, and only when there is no suspect information: gasoline theft, theft (under $1,000), criminal trespass to property, criminal trespass to a vehicle, criminal mischief, criminal tampering, missing or lost property, financial crimes/ fraud/identity theft, vehicles accidents (when DCSO is on accident alert) and animal control calls such as barking dogs or animal neglect.
You can access the system from dcsheriff.net under “on-line citizen reporting.”
