Detective Division

 
Coon Rapids Police Detective Division

The Detective Division is responsible for investigating most felony crimes within the city. This includes assaults, robberies and other personal crimes. They also investigate property crimes such as thefts, burglary, fraud and worthless check cases.

The Detective Division has an innovative tool, the Automated Pawn System.  Coon Rapids participates with the cities of Minneapolis, St. Paul and a number of suburbs that share information about pawned property. Information can be rapidly obtained by computer which has proven effective in tracking stolen property.

Detectives work closely with the Anoka County Sheriff’s Criminal Investigations Division and rely on the Sheriff’s Crime Lab for processing evidence and crime scenes. In addition, Coon Rapids detectives participate in regional investigative networks to spot trends and use other department’s information to solve local crimes.

Three detectives are assigned as School Liaison Officers (SLOs) at Coon Rapids High School, Coon Rapids Middle School and Northdale Middle School during the school year.  SLOs investigate crimes occurring at school or may involve students as suspects, victims or witnesses. SLOs work with school staff and other community resources to help solve problems involving students.  As a partner in the school community they provide a valuable resource to students, staff and police department.
