As a member of the 富二代视频app community, the occasion may arise when you may interact with a Police Officer from the 富二代视频app Police Department. This could happen for a variety of reasons. The officer may be investigating a crime or they may believe you are a witness and have information that might be helpful. In all cases, if an officer asks you to identify yourself, you are required by Indiana State Law IC 34-28-5-3.5 and 富二代视频app University code of conduct, to produce identification or give personal identity information including your name, address, date of birth, etc.
If the officer is investigating a crime or complaint, they may also ask reasonable questions to help them determine whether a crime has occurred or a complaint is valid. Refusal to answer questions may prevent an officer from gathering all necessary information. If an officer stops you, you should do your best to try to answer the questions the officer poses. Running from 富二代视频app Police Officers is not advised in any situation and is an additional violation of State Law and the University鈥檚 Code of Conduct,听to flee or resist 富二代视频app Police Officers, as well as any other local law enforcement Officers.
A police officer will not detain you for an unreasonable amount of time and may not arrest you without cause. If you are placed under arrest, the officer must tell you with what crime you are charged. Individual cases must be reviewed by a judge for cause within 48 hours. If you are given a citation by a 富二代视频app Police Officer, this is a state citation and is in addition to a referral to the Community Standards Committee. You will receive communication from the Putnam County Prosecutor鈥檚 Office, usually in the form of a summons to court with an assigned court date. Community Standards will also contact you in regards to the University鈥檚 process.
If during any encounter with a 富二代视频app Police Officer you feel that the officer has acted unprofessionally or inappropriately, contact the Police Department Director during normal business hours, 765-658-5555 or police@depauw.edu
