Crime of the Week

Online Camera Registration

Residents and businesses can now register the locations of their outdoor video surveillance systems with the Springfield Police Department. When an incident occurs, police will be able to identify the locations of nearby video cameras and enlist the assistance of the community to help officers collect video evidence and follow up on leads. The police will not have access to your cameras or security system. If footage is needed, a secure link will be provided to the resident by a third party vendor working with the department.
