Police Department

Welcome to the Centreville Police Department!  

As we continuously seek out new ways to enhance the public's accessibility to our department, this page has been designed with that goal in mind. It is my desire to continue to improve our ability to reach the public using state-of-the-art technology to increase the speed, accuracy, and reliability of police-related data that is so vital in today's information-driven world.

The Centreville Police Department is a full-service law enforcement agency serving the citizens of Centreville, Maryland, which is the county seat of Queen Anne's County.  The men and women of our department strive daily to fulfill our public safety mission while improving the quality of life for those living, working, and visiting the Town of Centreville. We are a progressive department and industry leader in police training, technology, and community engagement.  

We currently have 13 sworn officers whom are all dedicated to keeping our community safe and providing exceptional service to our citizens. Because we are such a small department, all sworn officers are assigned to patrol, but handle all other collateral duties, as well, to include criminal investigations.  Currently, we have one K9 team, who specializes in drug detection, patrol and tracking. 

I am exceptionally proud of the alliances we have established with our citizens, businesses, community organizations, government leaders, and our fellow law enforcement partners. Our collaborative efforts are essential to fighting crime in our community. 

It is my honor and privilege to lead a police department that is highly visible and proactive while delivering a personal level of professional police services to the citizens we are sworn to protect.
