That is a fair point.
Complete and fax to Northern District as a Charles Village resident
the application for a crime watch number to use when you call 911 in
place of your name and police will come more quickly than an anonymous
call. The Chat List will not allow me to attach the application so I
will send it to you under separate cover.
Make your call to 911 concise, clear, and without emotion giving the
physical description and the location. The sooner the 911 operator
gets off the phone with you, the sooner, he or she can call dispatch.
Dispatch takes the calls and forwards them to officers on patrol
according to the seriousness of the complaint and the number of
officers on patrol in the vicinity.
If the police do not respond in a timely manner, let me know so that I
can notify Deputy Major Worley and he will check with dispatch to see
why the call was not responded to sooner and get back to me.
I will ask Deputy Major Worley to check with dispatch for that date
and time to see what factors may have contributed to the police not
responding in time identify and question the suspect.

Thnx Sharon,
Do I have to use some type of code in order for the police to arrive
in a timely fashion and while the person is still ar'd? I know what
to do in these situations but again the elderly can be victimised. I
hope to remain quick when I get more elderly.

Here is Deputy Major Worley's response to our request for assistance
in locating the suspicious person who was knocking on doors on 1/31,
based upon the detailed description and location you provided:
Sharon,
I will have something put on the Special Attention list so that the
officers are on the lookout for him. As soon as anyone sees anything
like this they should immediately call 911. Unfortunately, someone
like this is just looking to take advantage of someone and most of
the time they are targeting the elderly, so please make sure
everyone looks out for their neighbors. They also use this as a
chance to knock on a door to see if anyone is home. If they don't
get an answer they may go to the rear or break in the front. If
someone answers they ask for someone who doesn't exist or make up a
story.
We haven't been experiencing any problems like this recently.
However, if someone comes to your door soliciting anything ask them
for ID. If they are legitimate they will have no problem showing you
their ID. In most cases the ID is hanging around their neck to
clearly identify them. Even if that is the case, ask to see it or
just deny them any contact and say your aren't interested.
The best advice I can give is that if something doesn't seem right,
it usually isn't. Call us and let us investigate.
Please let me know if you need anything else or you get any more
information.
Thank you,
Deputy Major Richard Worley
Baltimore Police Department
Northern District
