(PNA photo by Lloyd Caliwan) MANILA - The National Capital Region Police Office (NCRPO) on Monday launched an app to facilitate a more effective and quick mechanism of reporting any crime. NCRPO chief Maj. Gen. Jonnel Estomo said the S.A.F.E NCRPO APP Alert mobile application can be used via a finger touch to immediately relay an alert to the nearest police officers patrolling in their area of jurisdiction. The app is connected to an alert server that will be monitored by the Tactical Operation Centers (TOCs) of NCRPO. He said the app is not reliant on an internet connection as alerts will be sent via short messaging system (SMS) if there is no mobile network signal. Lt
