Eight detectives are assigned to the Metro Patrol Property Crimes Section. They investigate a multitude of property-related offenses that occur within Metro Patrol’s boundaries. These crimes include burglary, stolen cars, theft and property damage.
Not every crime is assigned to a detective. Each property-related report is reviewed on a daily basis. More than 10,000 property-related offenses occur in Metro Patrol each year. Once assigned, cases are handled as promptly and efficiently as possible.
Additionally, detectives are assigned the task of conducting car dealership verification inspections for new and existing businesses as well as salvage lot inspections. These inspections are done on a yearly basis, and detectives request that you contact them well in advance of your inspection deadlines.
