“See something Say something” for smartphones
The See Say Rider App offers the public a quick and discreet method for reporting suspicious activity directly to Transit Police. The app can send pictures, text messages, and locations of suspicious people or activities. From the home screen, users have two easy options for contacting Transit Police:
* The “Report a Problem” button allows users to send text or photos directly to Transit Police. To ensure discretion, the camera flash is automatically disabled when photos are taken through the app. When reporting an issue, users can select locations and report categories to assist Transit Police. Riders can also send reports anonymously if they chose.
* The “Call Transit Police” button will connect customers directly to Transit Police.
The application is designed for transits. If you send a report in an area without cellular connectivity, it will be stored and sent when connectivity returns. The system is also designed to send text messages before pictures so that Transit Police can get app reports as quickly as possible.
Additional Features
BOLO (Be On the Look Out) Alerts. BOLO Alerts on the See Say Rider App may display alerts from Transit Police about specific persons of interest. For example, See Say Rider may display information about a missing person or child, such as where they were last seen. If you see a person from a BOLO, immediately call 911 and send an app report to Transit Police discreetly.
