Emergencies:
The WKUPD is just a telephone call away, should the need arise.
Officers will respond to your calls for service and advise whether
a crime has, or has not, been committed. The officer will also
advise about alternate solutions. If a crime has been committed,
the officer will take information that will be placed into an
official police report, which will be investigated by the Investigative
Division of the police department. This information may be submitted
to the County Attorney’s Office for an official determination
of criminality.
