When I spoke to the sheriff's office they seemed to encourage us to do so. And it isn't the emergency line. They have staff for just these kinds of issues.


Sumter County Sheriff's Office Phone Directory

FOR ALL EMERGENCIES DIAL 911

I didn't mean to imply that if someone saw something they shouldn't call the police. I'm sorry if it came off that way. Of course call the police.

It's not tying up the Sheriff's line if you see something suspicious.
There is a non-emergency line for your personal questions.

BTW there are hundreds of white trucks in and around TV everyday.
There was one in particular someone had referred to... I thought maybe the poster was asking about that one. If I don't know the answer, I would just leave it for someone who does.

Good response!!!!
