Edmonton Police Service - Downtown Division

I just wanna give a big shout out to the staff here. They deal with a lot day in and day out. When I went in they were extremely friendly, professional and timely. Our police service deserves a lot more credit than they get. They're making our streets a safer place and from what I've seen we've got some good ones who don't discriminate and are just trying to help

Watching constable Sutton out there recording cars. That haven't done anything wrong and saying that just in case they do you will have their information. This is the reason why people love to see cops get hurt or even worse. This is the reason why no one likes police anymore and not only that most of these videos are American so when I see 1 in Canada from Edmonton it. Really? Sets. My nerves of shame on you you tyrant disgusting pig. I hope karma finds you on your next traffic stop.

Went in to fill out an accident report at roughly 6pm today. The lady at the desk told me I was wrong and had to come back with an estimate even though the dispatch line had told me to just come down to a station and make a statement (Apparently the people who answer the dispatch line are civilians she said and that they dont know the process, kind of funny that the people answering calls don't know how things work???) After explaining that I don't have collision, therefore will not be taking it to a bodyshop until my insurance tells me to, she said I had an attitude problem and i would have to wait for someone else to help me. The next cop that helped me took my statement right away, asked to see some pictures and a few more details, gave me my copy of the report, statement and my damage sticker without any hassle. 3/4 people working the desk tonight all had attitude problems as I watched others being treated in a disrespectful manner. One of the uniformed cops told a civilian to leave his personal info unattended while they looked at his vehicle, his reasoning if a cop tells you to do something

Had our block shut down due to an investigation, and i couldnt find any officers at any barracades or find anyone to help direct me. Found a way to my house to see if my family was ok and every officer showed up yelling like i did something wrong. I explained my situation, was told i could leave and when i did got told im getting a fine for not following an officers directions. Along with a good blast about how wrong i was. Its one thing to totally mislead and then another to blame me for your lack of direction. Weather was completely wet, snowy and icey, there were 4 cars with lights around my house and i couldnt see anything let alone drive fast. I was accused of speeding off at 10kmh, and not paying attention to officers and one lady yelling and swearing at me said i just about ran over her foot. I wasnt issued any fines only threats, when i asked for names and badge numbers i was sent off. This made an absolutely horrible day grueling not to mention enforced my lack of trust.

Have had some vandalism recently. They were quick to take a statement. Although not successful in finding out who is responsible. Weird considering it happened two nights in a row and I told them I believe the perps would be back the following night. Calling in to see if I can legally install motion lights on a public sidewalk as this is apparently the best defense against this kinda thing. So If I get a fine I have proof that I tried. Edmonton police are really quick at giving giving traffic fines though so that's good right? Update: gotta pay the city for a permit to install motion lights. Everybody just seems to want your money and not help. Greedy world we live in

Terrible experience. Went in to get a police information check 2 weeks before I needed it. The officer dealing with me barely looked at my application, seemed like I was annoying him. He did not fully look at my form to ensure it was all good, he was too busy looking at is buddy's computer who was looking at a new car. Did not confirm my address (as it was different on my license). I then had my application sent back a week later saying I missed a signature. Now I have no way of getting one on time and have had significant repercussions due to not having a police information check on time.

Made sure that they continued to widen the gap between themselves and the civilian population that pay Thier wages. Managing to break more laws then they are able to protect that seem to forget the original reason the oath they taken extend past the day they swore to it.The oversight for unprofessional conduct to be investigated by fellow officers is the biggest conflict if interest that has no real fair chance to ever find a group of people any wrong doing when operating under absolute power for absolute corruption.Don't ever say there is the odd one that's good, when that same one turns a blind eye to doing nothing about the others that are bad.Don't get me started in what civil forfieghture is arbitrary fund generating unjustly executed.

July 21/20 I called the Edmonton Police from Nova Scotia because I had been unable to contact a relative afflicted with medical issues and I was concerned for their well-being. I was extremely pleased with the respectful, caring concern I was treated with. Within 2 hours I had a return phone call from the Constable, who had spoken face to face with my relative, assuring me he was OK. I thank all involved for excellent public service.

Yeah so it seems your department is pretty open to social media right now its getting a decent amount of attention, so i hope you do your job and actually investigate this incident!
