WHAT IS SUSPICIOUS?

"Am I witnessing a crime?" Most of us have found ourselves wondering this at some time or other. However, because we are not really sure, we tend to ignore what we have just seen and, hoping it wasn't so, we continue about our business.

"PEOPLE AREN'T SUSPICIOUS, BEHAVIOR IS!"

Signs and behavior to look for that may be suspicious:

    * A person running.
    * A stranger carrying property.
    * A person going door-to-door in an building or a residential area.
    * Any person forcibly entering a locked vehicle, dorm room or even a classroom.
    * Business transactions being conducted from a vehicle.
    * One or more persons sitting in a parked car exhibiting suspicious behavior.
    * A juvenile or female being forced into a vehicle.
    * A person exhibiting unusual mental or physical symptoms.
    * Unusual noises ]]> Safety Information University of North Carolina 2007-10-17T02:17:45Z
