The Joliet Police Department is now using the Pinterest social network to connect with residents.

Pinterest is a virtual pinboard where users can “pin” items of interest.

The department will “pin” fliers of subjects with outstanding warrants, “attempt to identify” posters and surveillance videos of unsolved crimes from the area.

Users can follow the department’s Pinterest page at pinterest.com/jolietpolice. No registration is required.

Joliet police information is also available on other social media networks. In order to access up-to-date information, residents are asked to do the following:

Facebook: A Facebook account is required. Residents can then “like” the police department’s Facebook page by visiting www.facebook.com/jolietpolice.

Twitter: No Twitter account is required to view the department’s tweets — twitter.com/JolietPolice.

Nixle: Residents are asked to sign up for this free public notification service by accessing www.nixle.com.
