The City of Cortez is encouraging residents and local businesses to register their security and door cameras with Crime Watch. The Crime Watch website allows the Cortez Police Department to know where cameras are located to aid in investigations. The police department will not have access to the cameras, only their locations. The goal of the initiative is to better deter and investigate crimes, vandalisms, and thefts. A camera registration link can be found on the department's Crime Watch website. Learn more about these and other stories online at montezumalocal.news.
