NEWS RELEASE

The Rome Police Department is pleased to announce that it will implement Non-Emergency Online Incident Reporting. This will be available to the citizens beginning May 21, 2020. We recognize that COVID-19 has changed our lives in many ways. We want everyone to stay safe during these times and still have access to file non-emergency reports without the need for person to person contact with a police officer.
