Crime Reporting Information
It is the responsibility of each member of the UNO community and his/her guests to make contact with UNO University Police in a timely fashion to report any criminal or questionable activities on campus. University Police Officers take an active role in ensuring a safe campus by providing both foot and vehicular patrol. University Police Officers respond to calls for service via radio communications to ensure a timely response.
With each reported incident, an appropriate investigation will take place. To inform the UNO community of campus incidents, a University Police official will meet with a representative of the media to review the Daily Dispatch Log at least weekly. A request can be made by the media representative to review the Initial Police Report. Copies of completed reports will be furnished to the media with confidential student or investigatory information deleted when appropriate.
Reports of open and/or active cases will not be released if it could prejudice or compromise the investigation of a crime or incident. In these cases, a brief oral or written gist of the incident may be furnished to the representative.
