Strange or suspicious?
Reports and tips from local residents are extremely important in tackling crime. This information can be the start of an investigation or the missing piece of the puzzle that solves a case. This can be done by recognizing suspicious signals and responding to them.

For example, if you see unknown cars in the neighborhood standing still next to each other in the evening or at night, or a house with a constant flow of unknown visitors, this could be a suspicious situation.
