Kansas City Missouri Police Department - If You’re Buying and Selling Goods in Person After Meeting Online, We Encourage You to Do So at One of Our Police Stations

184

If you’re buying and selling goods in person after meeting online, we encourage you to do so at one of our police stations.

Our detectives are working an increased number of armed robberies stemming from online meet-ups. This follows two years of this crime barely being reported to us.

Cell phones are popular items bought & sold. Recently, a suspect carjacked a victim trying to sell a car. This crime happens outside hotels, in grocery store parking lots, and other public places.

We have Internet Exchange Areas at all six patrol stations.
