Crime Prevention Unit

"The police are the public and the public are the police; the police being only members of the public who are paid to give full time attention to duties which are incumbent on every citizen in the interests of community welfare and existence" - Sir Robert Peel, 1829

Sir Robert Peel's philosophy of policing in 1829 is the foundation of today's community oriented policing models seen nation wide.

The Two Rivers Police Department is committed to cooperative crime prevention efforts with our citizens in the form of education and encouraging citizen involvement.

Simple measures taken by you, the homeowner, renter or business owner can help to prevent you from becoming a victim.

Lock your doors and report suspicious activity when you see it. These are the two most important aspects of a successful community crime prevention program.

Also check out our vacation home check program.  If you know you will be gone for an extended period of time for a vacation, fill out an application and we will send Officers over to check and make extra patrols to ensure your house is secure.
