🚔 What to Do If You Are Stopped by Someone You Believe Is Not a Law Enforcement Officer

If someone stops you and you are unsure whether they are a legitimate law enforcement officer, consider the following actions:

🔍 1. Ask for Their Name and Badge Number

✅ A real officer will always provide their name and badge number upon request.

☎️ Suggested Image: A person making a call on their phone.

📲 5. Call 911 for Verification

📡 If you are unsure of their identity, you have the right to call 911 to confirm if they are a legitimate officer. If there is no immediate safety concern, a real officer will allow this.

⚠️ If you are approached or questioned by someone you suspect is not a law enforcement officer, report the incident as soon as possible to both the Gettysburg Police Department and Campus Safety.
