When a person reports a crime or traffic accident to the Fairfield Police Department, a police officer responds to conduct a preliminary investigation and to file an official report. The investigation includes collection of evidence, talking to witnesses, etc. For these reasons, and under normal circumstances, the Fairfield Police Department will not file a crime or traffic accident report based upon information obtained by telephone.
