The Fullerton Police Department (FPD) had an eventful week. The FPD and the federal Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) seized 110 pounds of methamphetamine and two firearms. They also announced on March 6 that they arrested two individuals who they believe have connections to the Sinaloa Cartel, according to DEA officials. The FPD K-9 narcotics-sniffing dog, named \u201cKilo,\u201d played a crucial role in the operation.<\/p>\n
The FPD launched a new online reporting system on March 3 entitled \u201cCommunity Report.\u201d Residents can file Police Reports themselves for non-emergency situations.<\/p>\n
The system is accessed by going to cityofFullerton.com, hovering over \u201cGovernment,\u201d and clicking \u201cPolice.\u201d Then click on the \u201cFILE POLICE REPORT\u201d button.<\/p>\n
Crimes reported must be within the city of Fullerton and not on the I-5, 91, or 57 freeways. Examples of reportable crimes include burglaries, assault, trespassing, credit or debit card fraud, and documented child custody violations.<\/p>\n
The FPD also offers a Community Crime Map at communitycrimemap.com.<\/p>\n
Users can click on icons in this Google-maps-type interface and see the crime category, time, and date.
Also at the Fullerton Police Department page of the cityoffullerton.com website, you can see a log of the thousand or so calls each week for service.<\/p>\n
