The Gravette Police Department consists full-time and part-time sworn officers, school resources officers for the Gravette School District, and non-sworn administrative personnel who are responsible for nearly 4,000 residents living in an approximately 15-square mile area.

The Department currently has four divisions:

The Patrol Division: which consists of field patrol officers.

Detective Division: The detective division is responsible for investigating select crimes within our jurisdiction.

K9 Division: Gravette Police Department’s current K9 team is K9 “Roni” and his handler Sergeant Cline. Roni is a Belgian Malinois trained to perform multiple tasks including detecting narcotics, article recovery, tracking, missing persons, handler protection, criminal apprehension, and patrol situations. Roni has become a valuable member of our team and has played his part in keeping our community safe.

In addition to the regular duties of the officers such as criminal patrol, investigations, traffic patrol, and accident investigations, many of the officers maintain advanced specialty training in areas such as Active Shooter training, Narcotics investigation, Animal Control, Sex Offender registration, DWI and Drug interdiction.

If the owner cannot be identified, the animal will be held for six days before being put up for adoption if adoptable. Dogs that are currently in the City kennel will be posted on the City’s Facebook page.

Victim Rights Information

 

“Pursuant to the Arkansas Victim Rights Act of 1997 and Act 873 of 2015 (Laura’s Law), Arkansas law enforcement is required to provide information for victims of domestic abuse crimes. This information has been assembled into a format called “Laura’s Card” to provide victim rights and necessary contact information in a clear and concise format that is standardized throughout the state.

 

Our officers are required to furnish these pamphlets to the victim of any domestic violence crime so that victims are made aware of medical and housing services. Counseling, financial, social, legal, and emergency services contact information is also provided. In addition, the pamphlet also contains information about obtaining orders of protection, directions on how to access public records related to the case, and contact information for the Arkansas Crime Victims Reparations Boards. The card also includes a web link to information about signing up for the VINE program, which notifies victims automatically when an incarcerated individual is released from a jail or prison.

 

In addition to the officers of the Gravette Police Department handing out this information during crime incidents, we would like to make it available here for reference. Should you have any questions, please contact our office at 479-787-6948.
