Policy

Employees shall notify their supervisor of the loss, recovery, or damage of City-owned property. The ensuing investigation is the responsibility of the respective commander. It is the employee’s responsibility to ensure that a CAPRS report is completed. City-owned equipment that is lost during an officer's response to an incident or crime should be reported as “LOSTPR” in the CAPRS report. Items misplaced shall be reported as a "MYSDIS" in a CAPRS report. A copy of the report shall be attached to a completed Inventory Record Change Form (MP-8001) and forwarded immediately to MPD Stores.

If property is recovered, the respective commander shall ensure that a Supplementary Report in CAPRS is completed and forwarded to MPD Stores. If the property is to be used as evidence in a criminal case, it shall be inventoried in the Property and Evidence Unit.
