Emergency Services Division

Emergency Services Division

The Emergency Services Division (ESD) is the Police Department's uniformed patrol section. The officers assigned to ESD are split into three separate shifts, day shift, afternoon shift, and the midnight shift. The division is traditionally assigned one Captain, three Lieutenants, nine Sergeants, and approximately thirty-six patrol officers.  The Lieutenant, who serves as Turn Commander, is responsible for the daily patrol operations and the officers assigned to their shift. The Sergeants are responsible for the direct supervision of the officers. Together, these men and women patrol the city of Warren 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Also assigned to the Emergency Services Division are Municipal Court Security Officers, School Resource Officers (SRO), and one K-9 team.

The Emergency Services Division are the first responders, handling approximately 40,000 calls for service annually. These calls range from incidents such as residential and commercial burglar alarms, domestic violence, and assaults, up to the most serious calls including drug offenses and shootings. The patrol officers are also responsible for the enforcement of all traffic laws, and motor vehicle crashes within the city.

With a commitment to quick response, and fair treatment to all citizens, the officers of the Emergency Services Division are proud to provide the City of Warren with the best police service possible.
