Please leave a detailed description of the activity and other important information. Please give as much detail as possible. This may include:
- Names and addresses of the individuals involved
- Pager, cell, or telephone numbers
- The times the activities occur
If you do not want to remain anonymous and want to speak to a detective or other officer in the Canton Police Department, please leave your name and phone number on the voice mail.
False Information
Please be aware that in accordance with Ohio Revised Code 2921.13, falsification of information and giving false information to incriminate another, are first-degree misdemeanors.
