The Lima Police Department will be implementing a new security camera database system.

The program will provide police with a contact list, which will allow them to see who, either personal residences or businesses, might have captured security footage of a crime which occurred in that area.

When a crime is committed, officers will be able to refer to the list and quickly identify cameras in that area to determine whether those cameras may have captured something to assist in their investigations.

They will make contact with the camera’s owner and request to review the video footage from the date and time of the crime.

The process greatly expedites and enhances investigations with identifying and apprehending the suspect.

Lima residents interested in joining the program can scan a QR Code found on the Lima Police Department Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/LimaPoliceDepartment
