On National Dog Day, we want to take a moment to recognize our furry officers who show up every day for our community.🐾

CPPD has four canines on duty: Blitz, Dutch, Ronin and Valor.🐶🦴

These very good boys protect their handlers during every call and serve as their companion during long shifts. Their partnership is second to none.

We’re so grateful for our Crown Point Police K9 Unit!💙

Today is National Dog Day, and these four have earned it.

Meet the K9s of the Crown Point Police Department. They train constantly, they work hours most of us are asleep for, and they go first into places to protect those around them. They're working partners and somebody's family- both, all of the time.

To these four and the officers who handle them: thank you. 🐾

Left to Right: Dutch, Blitz, Valor, Ronin

We are aware of a recent spoofing scam, where callers are claiming to be detectives/officers with the Crown Point Police Department, asking for personal information. Please do not fall for this scam.

While our officers may contact you, we will never:
🔵Ask you to pay a ticket over the phone.
🔵Arrest you for declining to pay a fine or ticket over the phone to a random scam caller.

As a friendly reminder, all official correspondence from the Crown Point Police Department, Crown Point City Courts and/or the Lake County Government Center will be sent via mail.

If you are wary about any phone calls you receive, give us a call at 219-663-2131

As we continue to clean up from the recent storms, please be wary of scammers.

➡️Be skeptical of those offering immediate clean-up or repair services without proper vetting.
➡️ Research contractors. Ask for licenses and proof of insurance. Call the Crown Point Building Department to verify a contractor is licensed in the City at 219-662-3239.
➡️FEMA does not charge application fees.
➡️Request estimates from multiple companies.
➡️Maintain written record of contracts.
➡️Never pay with wire transfers, gift cards, cryptocurrency or cash. Never pay the full amount upfront.

Crown Point, you showed up for National Night Out! While the NNO trophy is staying at the Crown Point Fire Department this year, we had a great time on the field and spending time with our community.🥎

Thank you to everyone who stopped by to cheer on our officers and our community partners for making NNO a night to remember. Special thanks to Starbucks, whose team raised funds for our K-9 Unit!🐾

Our drone show was presented by sponsors Eotech and Dutch Farms. This year's foam party sponsored by The Staples Realty Group. Thank you, all, for your continued support!🌟
