Introduction
A red or blue shirt, baggy pants, colored laces or a sports jersey does not make someone a gang member or associate.
The Caldwell Police Street Crimes Unit and street patrol officers, when documenting a gang member, must consider the combination of tattoos, clothing, and monikers to officially document someone as a know gang member.
The photographs, code documentation, and information provided in this presentation are intended to raise awareness of common gang signs and symbols. If you suspect gang affiliation or have questions, any Caldwell Police officer can offer additional information.

Report Crime
Idaho Statute 18, Chapter 85 outlines the Idaho Criminal Gang Enforcement Act. Our officers adhere to definitions set out in 18-8502 when documenting a gang member. Once documented, a gang member can have any future crimes punishable with enhanced penalties.
