Aren't
You Tired of Living in the Dark?
And NOT
Knowing Who to Call When You Have a Crime Problem?
CALL the
LAW ENFORCEMENT HELPLINE
(509)
477-5980
This line
was developed to serve and guide you by directing you via one number to
various law enforcement divisions such as the Spokane Crime Reporting
Center, Spokane Police Department, Juvenile Court, the Domestic Violence
Team, Spokane Valley Police, County Sheriff, Spokane C.O.P.S., S.C.O.P.E.,
etc.
ALSO----NEW
PHONE BOOKS ARE OUT!
If you are
in the county and want to have access to the various divisions of the Law
Enforcement HELPLINE "Tree," you will find it on PAGE 83 of your CITY Blue
Pages in front of your Yellow Page DEX Listings. If you know the numbers for
the Spokane Crime Reporting Center, hotline numbers, city and county law
enforcement, Records Division, etc., you can certainly call those numbers
directly versus going through the Law Enforcement Helpline.
But, always
remember:
Call 9-1-1 FOR CRIMES IN
PROGRESS OR AN EMERGENCY
WHEN YOU
NEED A POLICE OFFICER TO RESPOND!
