WARNING!

 There is a new drug appearing on the school scene - "strawberry quick" - kids think it is candy but it's really a type of crystal meth. Instruct your children not to accept candy from strangers especially if it looks like "pop rocks". It comes in various flavors besides strawberry. It can have serious effects if ingested. 

A Dallas Citizen Police Academy class will begin on January 14, 2009. Classes will be held every week for 8 weeks. Make application to attend through the Dallas Police Department Neighborhood Police Units.

Check to see if there are felons in your neighborhood:

Our Association

The Audelia Court Crime Watch Association is a local community based Interactive Community Policing (ICP) and project... And a lot, lot more...

Who Needs Crime Watch?

EVERYONE. In our rapidly growing city there is less familiarity with neighbors and more privacy. These conditions increase your communities’ vulnerability to crime and, in turn, call for a relationship that will tighten security and provide for support and cooperation among community members.

What Are Crime Watch Objectives?

  • Increasing citizens awareness of neighborhood crime through a continuing education process
  • Educating citizens so they will recognize and report suspicious activity
  • Teaching citizens ways to keep themselves and their property secure
  • Encouraging an effective working relationship between Law Enforcement and the Community

Members Are Encouraged To…

  • Act as "Eyes" and "Ears" for their neighbors and to report any suspicious activity. Study all crime prevention material available through the program.
  • Check on their neighbors’ homes when they are out of town. Secure their homes in compliance with the recommendations of the crime prevention officer.
  • Participate in Operation Identification and other crime prevention programs.

Tid'Bits From The Peanut Gallery

Many people don't want to bother the police because they are afraid that it may not be a real emergency or that they may be embarrassed if their suspicions turn out to be unfounded.

The police would much rather be called out to investigate than to be called after a crime has been committed. When in doubt, always call 911. The 911-dispatch center is staffed with trained operators who will evaluate your call, rank its priority, and dispatch it to the appropriate officer.

Neighborhood Watch does NOT mean being a vigilante. Participants do not confront suspects or take any personal risks at all.

Education Leads To Prevention!!!

Plan to attend every neighborhood watch meeting that is held in your local neighborhood.
