The Emmett Township Department of Public Safety is made up of several separate units that function as one agency. The department provides law enforcement, fire, and medical response that, combined with other areas, make up a department that well exceeds the norm for local policing.

Each Emmett Township Public Safety Officer Level III are trained in both Law Enforcement and Fire/Medical response. By having these officers trained in the above areas, they are able to provide the citizens of Emmett Township, and those who pass through the area, the absolute best in all response needs. Several Emmett officers are trained in specialized fields in an attempt to keep up with the ever growing needs of the community:

• Computer Forensics and Internet Crime
• Child Identification
• Digital Evidence
• Evidence Scene Technicians
• Sexual Assault Investigations
• Police Canine Training
• Accident Re-Construction and Investigation
• Hazardous Materials Specialists
• Meth Laboratory Identification and Dismantling

The Emmett Township Dept. of Public Safety Patrol Division focuses on several different areas to provide a safe and free area for the residents:

• The department utilizes extensive traffic patrol to cut down on traffic accidents within the jurisdiction. While people are concerned about receiving a citation, it is a proven fact that speed causes death. The Emmett Township Dept. of Public Safety feels that a visible patrol response will not only slow down vehicles, but will also possibly prevent future accidents from occurring.

• Emmett Officers believe that drugs hinder the growth of young people and also can destroy communities that they affect. By this, ETDPS Officers take a very pro-active response to prevent, or remove, drugs from entering Emmett Township. Officers utilize traffic stops, K-9 Units, informant information, and general information from the public to fight the war on drugs. Our department has made multiple seizures from narcotics arresets and maintains a zero tolerance policy.

• Emmett Township Officers also believe that the community we are sworn to protect plays a huge role in crime prevention. The community can see changes in their areas that officers may not notice. We ask the community to work with the Public Safety Department by reporting suspicious vehicles and persons, as well as suspicious activities to our office. We will investigate and handle this information with absolute certainty. By providing information to our office, you may have prevented a crime from occurring.
