No!

Often the police will try to bring someone in to take a statement but sometimes the police might proceed secretively.

The best advice I can give you is not to volunteer any incriminating information about yourself when speaking with anybody. If the police call you in to take a statement, assert your right to remain silent and have a lawyer present, and then call a lawyer immediately.
