Policing
Always call 9-1-1 in an emergency.
Leduc County peace officers and the RCMP provide policing in Leduc County.
Peace officers
Peace officers enforce the following:
- municipal bylaws, such as the Traffic bylaw, Animal Control bylaw and Consumption of Cannabis in Public Places bylaw
- provincial legislation, such as the Traffic Safety Act, Environmental Protection and Enhancement Act, Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis Act and Trespass to Premises Act
Additional services include:
- investigating incoming complaints from community members
- proactively patrolling residential, industrial and recreational areas
- providing dog control services
- promoting traffic safety, including through commercial vehicle inspections
- supporting crime prevention through community outreach and partnerships with local crime watch groups
- providing support for other emergency agencies
Leduc County's Community Peace Officer Performance Plan identifies the areas peace officers will focus on this year.
Our peace officers cannot respond to incidents that involve dangerous weapons, including firearms. Firearms-related offences must be reported to either the RCMP or Alberta Fish and Wildlife, depending on the circumstances.
RCMP
The RCMP are responsible for responding to and investigating all criminal matters, including the following:
- vehicle collisions
- theft and home invasions
- drug-related crimes
- organized crimes
- economic crimes such as counterfeiting and credit card fraud
