HOW TO DESCRIBE A SUSPECT
An accurate description of the suspect and vehicle involved in any crime is
important in the apprehension of the criminal. Try to notice and remember the
following characteristics of a suspect, write them down if possible, and give this
information to the 9-1-1 operator when calling law enforcement to report the
crime:
Suspect
.. Sex
.. Race
.. Age
.. Height (Estimate in 2 inch blocks. Example: About
5’8” and use your own height or surroundings on
which to base your estimate.)
.. Weight (Estimate in blocks of ten pounds. Example:
130 to 140 pounds)
.. Build (Describe the frame and body type. Example:
large, medium, or small frame, heavy, slim, stocky,
obese, frail.)
.. Hair (color; texture – thick, thin, balding, fine, course;
style – straight, wavy, curly, frizzy); style it is worn, length. Do not
forget facial hair (mustache, beard, sideburns)
.. Clothing (Start at the top and work down – hat to shoes, noting the
color, types, brands, prints and logos.)
.. Characteristics (These include any and all distinguishing marks, scars,
tattoos, speech patterns, jewelry, eyeglasses, etc.)
.. Direction and mode of travel (In what direction, or towards what area
and, if on foot, bicycle, car, etc.)

School Begins

Can you believe it, school starts already. As most of you have noticed the No Parking signs at the main entrance of Bent Oak. We have a problem with that corner and we contacted the county about putting up the signs there, we feel they are in the wrong place and have recontacted them on getting them moved. Where the problem comes is when people drop off their children at Clay Springs and park at that corner, it causes quite a problem, especially for the safety of the children, not counting all of the cars that go in and out that entrance.
Speed is another concern here in Bent Oak, so please keep your speed down, and lets keep Bent Oak a safe place to live...... Dave
