The Waterways Unit is comprised of school resource officers and other personnel who patrol the Colorado River during the summer season.

The Bureau of Criminal Investigations consists of the General Investigations Section, the Property Crime Unit, the Vice Narcotics Section, the Forensics Section, two Gang Interdiction Officers and a Terrorism Liaison Officer.

The General Investigations Section is tasked with investigating crimes such as homicides, sexual offenses and crimes against children, property crimes, fraud and assault.

The Vice Narcotics Section works closely with other agencies and task forces (such as MAGNET) to investigate the illegal use and distribution of illicit drugs.

The Forensic Section is in charge of processing the evidence collected at crime scenes. The Forensic Section responds to major crime incidents to document and collect evidence.      

The Gang Interdiction Officers are assigned to a state gang task force (GIITEM). This unit focuses on gang activity and the gathering of gang intelligence.
 

The Property Crime Unit works with the local pawn shops and secondhand dealers to try and match items and to identify stolen items with the goal of reuniting property to its rightful owners. It’s important to write down all serial numbers, note identifying information and take photographs of your property. This will aid detectives in recovering your property if it is every stolen, plus puts a criminal behind bars. A free, secure online service called Report It allows you to build a personal property inventory list.
