Beware of scams from door to door salesmen who want to spray paint your roof, siding, or driveway to fix whatever is wrong with it. They normally want you to pay up front and then never do the job. If you didn't solicit a respectable company then turn these people down. Call 9-1-1 if you feel this is a scam! Also, be watching for a middle aged WM with ditry blond hair targeting certain houses at all hours of the night begging or soliciting money for a sick relative. Call 9-1-1 if this guy bothers you!

We are always looking for V.I.P. volunteers to help patrol the neighborhood. This is a non-confrontational car patrol with a partner. All you do is observe and if you see any suspicious activity call 9-1-1 immediately. This does require an application and a few hours of training by the Dallas Police Dept. Some have patrolled on foot and by bicycle. Email us for more information. If you are interested you can get your application forms here.
