[NEWS RELEASE] The Pinal County Sheriff’s Office has released a free mobile app to connect with members of the Pinal County community through their smartphones and tablets.

The new app allows PCSO to quickly disseminate emergency alerts, and post news about missing persons, traffic delays and public safety incidents. In the event of an emergency, app users receive instant notification via their mobile devices.

Citizens can easily send comments and crime tips – anonymously if they wish – and place calls to the Pinal County Sheriff’s Office with the touch of a button. They can notify the Sheriff’s Office about suspicious activity and easily send images, such as graffiti, through the app.

Anyone using Android, Windows or Apple platforms can download the app simply by going to the app store and searching for the Pinal County Sheriff’s Office app.

“The app provides an easy-to-use method for two-way communication between our office and community members,” said Sheriff Mark Lamb. “It’s a valuable tool for keeping safe.”

The app supports our office’s commitment to engage with the community in a timely manner through all sorts of social media. News that is distributed through the app also can be set to automatically post on the department’s social media accounts and distributed to the news media.

The Pinal County Sheriff’s Office app is not meant to replace calling 911 for crimes and emergencies in progress.

Those experiencing an emergency situation should continue to call 911.
