“State Accredited Law Enforcement Agency”

__________________________________________________________________

The Erlanger Police Department is a full-time police agency headed by Col. Marc Fields who is in his 8th year as Police Chief. Under Col Fields’ direction, the department has quickly become a recognized law enforcement agency not only in Northern Kentucky but the rest of the state as well. Currently we have 43 sworn members. Customer service is what we provide and it is our goal to provide the best customer service possible. We do this by assigning a team of officers to each neighborhood of the cities – districts. This team is responsible for problem solving in their assigned neighborhood. The Crescent Springs area has been designated as District 2. Lieutenant Troy Vines has been assigned as the District Commander. He is assisted by Sergeant Doug Eagler. Please contact either of them with any problem you may have and they will assist in any way they can.

We have officers that specialized in all aspects of law enforcement including, accident reconstruction, bike patrols, K-9, search and rescue, crisis interventions and a School Resource Officer. We have a 4 member staff of Criminal Investigators that each specialize in different aspects of the criminal investigation process. We offer DARE (Drug and Alcohol Resistance Education) classes to our youth and RAD (Rape Aggression Defense) classes to women of all ages.

We encourage everyone to participate in improving the quality of life in the cities we serve and hope you will find a way to become involved. The police department has several programs that depend on active involvement from citizens like you. We offer Citizen’s Police Academies, VIPS – Volunteers in Police Services, Explorers Post – for young men and women thinking of a career in Law Enforcement, and Neighborhood Watch Programs.

The Erlanger Police Department also provides a 24 hour 9-1-1 Call Center that dispatches police, fire and emergency medical services for 12 cities including Crescent Springs. The center has 12 certified telecommunication operators that are supervised by a 4 person administrative staff.
