If You Know Something Say Something: Water
The Bermuda Police Service said they would like to remind the boating public that the campaign “If you know something, say something,” applies as equally on the water as it does on land.
A spokesperson said, “Boaters and beachgoers are asked to report any suspicious or illegal activity immediately. Being mindful that Bermuda’s coastline is over 60 miles long, and the police can’t patrol all of it at the same time, it is important to provide as much detail as possible, and think of the following:
“1. Get the boat’s registration number and/or name.
“2. Take careful notes of:
- a) Details – what happened? What did you see and hear?
- b) Descriptions – sizes, colours, make of vessel, height and weight of people involved?
- c) Directions – which way did they go? Where did they come from?
“3. Consider taking photos or video with a smart phone or camera.
:And remember if you know something, say something,” added the police spokesperson
Taking pictures may not be such a good idea – the bad guys may get suspicious and come after you. Just stick to calling The Man.
I agree but… using my phone as an example, which is on me almost all the time, I can set an emergency option so if I hold both volume buttons the phone can send a pre-written text to a number I choose and also start rapidly taking pictures from the front and back camera, these pictures are also sent. Just something to think about.
What kind of phone do u have????? That’s an interesting feature!
