Paderborn

(mh) The Paderborn district police authority has expanded its communication services. The authority now also has its own channel on the WhatsApp messenger service. Anyone wishing to subscribe to the channel currently needs a link.

The link https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Vaas2kz9Gv7cWlleGA3v takes interested parties directly to the Paderborn police channel. As soon as Meta, the company behind WhatsApp, has activated the green tick, the channel can also be found via the regular search function.

In terms of content, the police will publish topics from their daily work tailored to the target group, as they already do via their Facebook and Instagram profiles. Always with the appropriate message, but in the manner required for the channel. With WhatsApp, the tool surveys/polls is crystallizing. Subscribers to a channel cannot reply there. The Paderborn police are pleased to have many new subscribers.

At the same time, the authority points out that no reports can be accepted via WhatsApp. In an emergency, the free emergency number 110 is available around the clock. The Paderborn police can be contacted on 05251 306-0 for witness information and other concerns.
