We have a staff of police aides who
are law enforcement students at the College.
We have a dual computerized reporting system between Laredo Community College and the Texas Department of Public Safety (Texas Crime Information Center).
We have a
multi-frequency communications system that enables our dispatcher to be
in constant communication with other police agencies that will assist our
department.
When on foot
patrol, officers provide a consistent and visible presence on campus.
Through foot patrol, officers are easily accessible and are often able to
deal with community concerns before they ever receive a call from a police
dispatcher.
We have fully marked automobiles and bicycles that allow flexibility and mobility in patrolling the campus area.
We have a Dispatch Center that monitors a variety of alarm systems (including fire,
intrusion, hold-up and trouble) to assist our officers in patrolling the campus.
Our department has a close working relationship with all surrounding law enforcement agencies: Laredo Police Department, Webb County Sheriff Department, Texas Department of Public Safety, United States Border Patrol, Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission, and the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. We exchange crime-related information with these and other agencies. We assist them when needed and call on them for assistance in return. We also have direct access to the National Crime Information System through the FBI in Washington D.C.
