The information provided below about some of the calls officers responded to is derived from notes provided by MPD Officers-In-Charge (OIC) at the end of their shifts. Most narratives represent early and preliminary information that was gathered by an OIC from those in the field who were actively working cases. The OIC is sharing what they were being told, in the moment. In many instances, facts and circumstances, even the type of crime listed, can change as officers, detectives and investigators continue their work.

From 6:00 a.m. on 02/25/2021 through 6:00 a.m. on 02/26/2021, MPD received 400 calls for service.  This number does not include parking complaints or 911 misdials.  A breakdown of the calls for service per district is as follows: Central (62), East (73), Midtown (60), North (61), South (47), West (62), and Other (35).  "Other" is used for calls that either do not have a sector or the sector is not in the City.  This would be used in the case of one of our officers assisting another law enforcement agency.

MIDTOWN: Mental Health Conveyance – 4:05 am.  Officers placed a hospital patient (22-year-old female) into protective custody and assisted with the admission process to the psychiatric unit.  (This was a late call that did not make the previous 24-hour cycle.)

Officers responded to a residence where a suspect was experiencing a mental health crisis.  The suspect was placed into protective custody and conveyed to a local hospital for an evaluation.  A safety plan was put in place for the evening until the time when the suspect would admit himself to a hospital for treatment.  Officers responded a second time to the residence, however, for another disturbance and arrested the suspect for domestic disorderly conduct.
