Oceanside Police Launch Zoom Crime Reporting System

OCEANSIDE, CA — The Oceanside Police Department is launching a new crime reporting system through Zoom.

According to a May 4th press release from Tom Bussey, Public Information Officer for the Oceanside Police, the Zoom Crime reporting provides a face to face reporting function that is not present with traditional phone reporting. Also, it provides users with the ability to have face to face communication with a member of the police department, while maintaining a socially acceptable distance and not having to physically come into the department to report their crime.

The Oceanside Police Zoom Reporting System lists guidelines to find out if Zoom Reporting is right for you:

• This is not an Emergency. If this is an Emergency please call 911.
• This incident occurred within the Oceanside city limits
• You are NOT attempting to report any of the following crimes: Stolen Vehicle Identity Theft
• This did not occur on State Route 78 or the I-5 Freeway.
