If you haven’t checked out the Fallon Police Department app, now is the perfect time. Launched in June 2023, the app provides valuable information, updates on police department activities, and more.
Having up-to-date information from the Fallon PD is proving to be a valuable community resource, especially now that school is back in session. When local incidents cause concern, residents can now get firsthand details directly from the police department.
The app was developed by ThePoliceApp.com, a brand of OCV, LLC, which specializes in creating mobile apps for police departments and public safety organizations nationwide. It provides quick access to important public information and is designed for user-friendliness.
Users can access features such as News & Events, Weather, Crime Prevention, Join Our Team, Employee Feedback, Contact Us, and more with just a few clicks.
Some of the app’s features include:
- Chief’s Corner: Offers an option to send Fallon PD Chief Ron Wenger a private message, even anonymously.
- Greenwave and Bighorn Corners: Provides school-related information.
- Warrant Wednesday: Highlights individuals who need to appear in court on outstanding charges.
- Sex Offender Search: Allows users to enter a name or street address to search the offender database.
- Submit a Tip: Provides a way for concerned citizens to submit a tip about an incident or suspected criminal activity and a direct link to submit a tip to the North Central Narcotics Task Force.
- Additional Services: Users can request a vacation house watch, access victim services, and mental health resources, and find Fallon PD forms like the statement form and oxygen-dependent form.
OCV Partner and CRO Kevin Cummings noted, “Over 80% of people in the United States own and use smartphones as their primary means of communication.” Many agencies, like Fallon PD, needed a better way to alert, inform, and prepare the public. “Apps allow public safety agencies to reach and serve their citizens where they are: their smartphones.”
Chief Ron Wenger emphasized that the department strives to release information on the app as quickly as possible when an incident occurs that could raise public safety concerns. By helping to keep citizens informed, the chief hopes that residents will feel supported by the PD and know that the department is constantly working to keep them safe.
