Keep Crime Out of Your Neighborhood

In the fight against drug dealing and use, the police work together with the municipality, the Public Prosecution Service, and other organizations, such as the RIEC. But this fight cannot be done by the police and the government alone. We need your eyes and ears. Do you see any of these signals?

• People hanging around and quickly exchanging something with passersby.
• A car where people keep picking up something.
• Much traffic to a house or building, even at odd hours.

Report this to the police and call 112. Or share your concerns with your neighborhood officer. You can also report anonymously via Meld Misdaad Anoniem at 0800-7000.
