Police Chief Alex Turcotte told The Sentinel earlier this month that the department has about 250-300 calls for service on average, with additional phone calls also being fielded by dispatchers. Turcotte said a call for service is “anything that gets an incident number,” and does not include calls where dispatchers were able to resolve the call over the phone and no one was dispatched.
Incidents involving a report being filed are typically where a crime has taken place or when a collision occurs, the chief said. Turcotte said some police activity will not be included in the logs, giving examples of certain domestic violence calls with sensitive information, or incidents involving police surveillance.
Latest arrest logs can also be found on the Citrus Heights Police Department’s logs page.
