Investigations
The Investigations Division is comprised of Violent Crimes
Bureau, Family Investigations Bureau, and
Drug Enforcement Bureau.
Alarm Detail
Each year false alarms cost all of us millions of dollars and thousands
of wasted man hours. The Phoenix Police Department, as well as the
security companies, must spend a significant amount of time and
money responding to false alarms.
Drug Enforcement Bureau
The Drug Enforcement Bureau (DEB) is responsible for investigation
and suppression of illegal narcotics within Phoenix. The bureau
is also involved in the interdiction of drug trafficking through
the Sky Harbor International Airport and shipping facilities throughout
the city.
Family Investigations Bureau
The Family Investigations Bureau was established January 1, 1999,
after the Phoenix Mayor and City Council approved the establishment
of the Family Advocacy Center (FAC) at 2120 North Central Avenue.
Violent Crimes Bureau
The Violent Crimes Bureau is comprised of four units: Homicide,
Selective Investigations, Technical Investigations, and General
Assignments.
Hate Crimes
The Hate Crimes Advisory Committee was established in August 1994
through the initial efforts of members of the Anti-Defamation League,
the Arizona Human Rights Fund and the Phoenix Police Department.
Missing Persons
The Phoenix Police Department Missing Persons Detail is responsible
for the follow-up investigation of missing person and runaway juvenile
reports. Additionally, the Missing Persons Detail investigates custodial
interference cases.
Silent Witness
Silent Witness is a Metro Phoenix program designed to provide you
with an anonymous means of providing police with information on
non-drug felony crimes you have witnessed or may have knowledge
of.
