UD Police And DMV Are All Atwitter

(WDEL) Tom Lehman reports ~ UD police host virtual ridealong

As officers respond to complaints, you can track them on Twitter during the department's TweetAlong, which begins around 10 p.m. "The whole goal of the TweetAlong is really is to make people think about their public safety," says University Police Chief Patrick Ogden. Ogden says an officer will be monitoring the department's complaint load for about four hours and tweet about incidents as the evening develops. "As things evolve, they're gonna tweet that information out," he says. "Sometimes they'll take pictures and those kinds of things." However, tweets won't include names or faces of those involved in incidents mentioned by the tweets. Follow @udelpolice on Twitter to view the TweetAlong.
