The Orland Park Police Department has created a new resource for Orland Park citizens and business owners to assist in crime prevention and crime solving efforts. The Orland Park Police Department is asking their residents and businesses to voluntarily register their personal security camera information with the Orland Park Police Department.
After a crime occurs, often times the first step in the police investigation is canvassing the area for security cameras, that may have captured evidence of the crime. While it would still be necessary for the police to canvass an area during an investigation, a compiled database of security camera information would help streamline the process and save valuable time and resources.
The registration would consist of providing the resident or business location, how many cameras are present and who to contact information to view the footage.
After registering your cameras, the police department will not have access to your footage. That would have to be provided by the owner on a case by case basis and only select members of the police department would have access to your contact information.
The registration process is simple, fast and secure. To register, please fill out the following form that can be found here:
