Morris Township Police Department

Check out what Morris Township Police Department is doing for the kids in their community!

🚨The Morris Township Police Department 🚔 and the Morris Township Fire Department 🚒 are teaming up with Morristown Police and Fire Departments to give you a gift. 🚨

We’ve all been asked to stay home, limit our movement, and keep our social distance. For kids celebrating a birthday 🎂 or other milestone, this means they can’t celebrate with friends and family in person. We want to step in and bring them a little happiness if we can.

If you’re stuck at home with a little one who is celebrating a birthday, we’d like to offer a public safety mini-parade. We’ll try our best to swing by with some police cars and firetrucks from the Morris Township Fire Department to brighten up your day. We’ll turn on the lights, maybe hit the siren once or twice (without annoying the neighbors), and give your little one a bunch of smiles and waves. It’s just our way of letting your child know they’re special and that we’re thinking of them on their very important day.

If you do your part by staying home, we’ll bring you a small bit of social-distance approved happiness.

If you’d like to take us up on our offer, please contact our mini-parade coordinator, Lt. Heather Glogolich via email at hglogolich@mtpd1422.com or call our Community Policing Unit at (973) 326-7450. We’ll do our best to get back to you as quickly as possible and promise to try to accommodate your request. We’ll obviously have to handle all our emergency calls first, so there’s no guarantee we can be there at a specific time, but we’d love a chance to brighten up somebody’s day. ... See more

Thank you Sheriffs Gannon and Robinson

Morris County Sheriff James M. Gannon and Bureau of Corrections Undersheriff Alan J. Robinson, an expert on the topic of keeping children safe from exploitation, draw your attention to an FBI advisory that children can be at risk as they spend an increased amount of time online while COVID-19 forces school closures.
Predators can coerce victims into providing sexually-explicit images or videos of themselves, with threats to post the images publicly or send them to the victim's family and friends.
Other offenders may make casual contact with children online, gain their trust and introduce sexual conversations that increase in egregiousness over time.
As parents and caregivers may be forced to alter babysitting and supervision arrangements, be aware that abuse can occur offline through direct contact with another individual.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
-- Discuss Internet safety with children of all ages when they engage in online activity;
-- Review and approve games and apps before they are downloaded;
-- Make sure privacy settings are set to the strictest level possible for online gaming systems and electronic devices;
-- Monitor children’s use of the Internet AND keep electronic devices in an open, common room of the house;
-- Check your children’s profiles and their online postings;
-- Explain to your children that images posted online will be permanently on the Internet;
-- Make sure children know that anyone who asks a child to engage in sexually explicit activity online should be reported to a parent, guardian, or other trusted adult and law enforcement;
-- Teach your children about body safety and boundaries;
-- Encourage your children to have open communication with you;
-- Be mindful of who is watching your child for childcare/babysitting, play dates and overnight visits;
-- If your child discloses abuse, immediately contact local law enforcement. ... See more

**Crime Alert**

Residents,

A friendly reminder to lock your doors and remove valuables from your cars. Early this morning, one of your neighbors had their vehicle burglarized, and yesterday morning, a neighboring community had someone try to steal a vehicle. So, we want to remind everyone that criminals are continuing about their daily activities while so many of us are not!

We also want to remind you that our Officers are patrolling your streets all night long! Just this weekend, they found several open doors … not unlocked, but OPEN doors that we either closed or we woke you up to tell you. As a community, we can do better! As neighbors, let’s continue to keep an eye out for each other. If you see an open trunk or car door at an odd hour or no one around, let your neighbor know, or call us!

Together, we can chase these criminals away just by taking care of each other!

Stay safe, Florham Park! ... See more
