Tweeting Away! Waukesha Police Department Joins Social Media

Have an emergency? Still call 9-1-1; don't tweet to the Waukesha Police Department.

The Waukesha Police Department joined several social media outlets this week to better connect and inform residents.

"We intend to use this to positively promote the department and notify the community of important information and enhance public safety," states a news release.  "Please continue to use (262) 524-3831 as our non emergency phone number and 9-1-1 for any emergencies."
