Community Crime Reporting

Features & Capabilities

CrimeSpotter is a free Chrome extension designed to empower communities by enabling swift reporting and sharing of local crimes. Users can easily report incidents which are not official but serve to alert nearby residents, community groups, security personnel, and law enforcement.

Each crime entry is mapped to its location and stored in a publicly accessible, searchable database. This tool turns knowledge into a powerful resource for community safety by bringing crime information directly to active citizens' hands.
