Anyone with information about the incident or the suspect is encouraged to contact the Twin Falls Police Department at 208-735-4357.

What to look for on a uniformed officer:

Police agencies in the Magic Valley have distinct uniforms with identifying arm patches and badges. Most have a name tag or a name sewn on the front of the uniform.

Officers of the Twin Falls Police Department are required to identify themselves as police officers and provide their names.

Trust your instincts. If they do not 'seem' to be real police officers, ask to contact the Emergency Dispatch Center at 208-735-4357 to confirm their identity. You may also request that a marked patrol unit respond.
