The Prosper Police Department (PPD) is pleased to introduce the Prosper C.A.T.C.H. Program (Criminal Apprehension Through Community Help), a groundbreaking initiative aimed at bolstering community involvement in identifying and capturing criminals. This innovative program leverages the power of technology to enhance public safety and combat criminal activity.
Through a strategic partnership with the Flock Safety Program, the Prosper community now has the opportunity to actively contribute to law enforcement efforts by registering their security cameras with the Prosper C.A.T.C.H. Program. By adding cameras to the designated registry, community members enable the PPD to swiftly locate potential video evidence pertinent to ongoing criminal investigations. This streamlined process facilitates prompt access to crucial information, significantly expediting the apprehension of suspects and resolution of cases.
Participants in the program have the option to integrate their camera systems with the Flock Safety Program, granting first responders access to live footage in emergency situations. This invaluable feature ensures that law enforcement can rapidly assess unfolding events, enabling more effective response strategies and ultimately safeguarding lives and property within the community.
“The Prosper Police Department is excited to offer a new way for citizens to contribute to the reduction of crime in Prosper through the use of technology and the Prosper Criminal Apprehension Through Community Help (C.A.T.C.H.) program,” said Chief Doug Kowalski. “With your assistance, we can continue to make Prosper the best place in Texas to Live, Work and Visit.”
