ABOUT US
The Rocky Hill Police Department was organized in 1938 and has been serving the community with pride and distinction ever since. The Department began operations with a single officer and has grown to an organization of 42 sworn personnel and twenty support personnel. The Department is organized into three main divisions.
Patrol
The Patrol Division is commanded by an Operations Lieutenant. There are 6 Sergeants and 22 Officers assigned to this Division. This Division provides twenty-four hour a day police service to the community. Officers are highly trained and work with the latest technology in law enforcement. Patrol personnel are first responders to medical emergencies and conduct initial investigations of all reported crimes.
Investigations
The Detective Division is commanded by an Investigations Lieutenant. There are three Detectives assigned to this Division. Detectives are specialized investigators who assist the Patrol Division in case investigation. Detectives are assigned non-routine and complex cases in an effort to free up Patrol personnel.
Communications
The Communications Division is commanded by the Support Services Lieutenant. There are 9 full-time civilian Communications Officers assigned to this Division. The Communications Division provides 24-hour a day emergency 911 coverage. It also provides dispatching for all police, fire and ambulance radio transmissions and calls for service. The Communications Division handled 25,780 calls for service in 2017.
A Police Community Partnership
