Scam Alert
#ScamAlert Our Communications Centre is reminding the public about an increase in fraudulent cold calls and emails. If someone is asking for personal or financial information and you are unaware why they are calling, do not provide & hang up.
Scam Alert
#ScamAlert Scams happen all year long, but email & cell phone scams have ramped up over the past couple months & these will continue as people approach income tax time. Please be vigilant & remember you do not need to respond "promptly" or "right away".
Stop Human Trafficking
#HumanTraffickingAwarenessDay2024 If you suspect someone is in a human trafficking situation, or a victim of human trafficking, call the Canadian Human Trafficking Hotline at 1-833-900-1010. This hotline is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Slow Down
Be prepared for additional roving radar throughout the City. Officers continue to clock motorists driving at or above 70km in a City that has posted signs of 50km or 40km, especially in neighborhoods. #SlowDown #ChargesLaid

Scam Alert
#ScamAlert Police Services are once again witnessing an increase in text-phone scams, focusing on parents & grandparents. Be vigilant. Do NOT respond immediately to unfamiliar texts. Contact a friend/family member to verify.
Foot Patrol
Foot patrol happens throughout the City, at all hours, when call volume allows. Owen Sound is a busy little City & we understand the importance of foot patrol whether it’s in the River District or along the harbour, or in areas vehicles can't travel. #CrimePrevention
