DIAL 911 EVEN IF IT'S NOT AN EMERGENCY!
Patrol Division
The Patrol function of the Ferndale Police Department provides twenty-four hour a day, seven day a week uniformed police response to emergency and non-emergency calls for service within the city, as well as providing mutual aid to other law enforcement agencies in the county when needed. Uniformed Patrol duties are varied and include response to 911 calls, visible police patrol, traffic enforcement, accident investigation, criminal investigations, response to tactical incidents, service of search and arrest warrants, and crime prevention.
