The Ventura Police Department has announced that it is joining the Neighbors app by Ring (available via iOS/Android here: https://download.ring.com/venturapd) to provide the Ventura community with real-time, local crime and safety information. The Neighbors network already has millions of users and has been instrumental in catching package thieves, stopping burglaries, and keeping neighborhoods safe.
Residents can download the free Neighbors app, join their neighborhood, and use the app to monitor neighborhood activity; share crime and safety-related videos, photos and text-based posts; and receive real-time safety alerts from their neighbors, local law enforcement and the Ring team.
“The free Neighbors app by Ring will be a valuable tool in our efforts to fight crime in our city. We appreciate the opportunity to partner with Ring and our community through this technology,” said Police Chief Ken Corney.
Jamie Siminoff, Chief Inventor and Founder of Ring said: “We’re excited to have the Ventura Police Department join Neighbors to keep their community up-to-date on local crime and safety information. Over the past few years we have learned that, when neighbors, the Ring team and law enforcement all work together, we can create safer communities.”
