Uniformed Patrol Division

Patrol officers are the most visible unit of the Floyd County Police Department. Our officers work three 10-hour shifts and are responsible for answering 911 calls from the public in the unincorporated area of Floyd County.

Officers are responsible for answering calls for service from 911, investigation of crimes and any reports of suspicious activity. Officers also respond to motor vehicle crashes and conduct traffic enforcement on all roads within the county. FCPD patrol officers conduct road checks, drug investigations and frequently interact with the public to ensure safety in our neighborhoods.

Specialized units within patrol division include Selective Enforcement, School Resource Officers and K9 officers.

• The selective enforcement unit is solely responsible for traffic enforcement, reducing traffic crashes in the community and keeping motorists safe while traveling in Floyd County. The SEU unit also conducts community events and responds to requests by the community to talk with senior groups, tours and neighborhood events.
• School resource officers are stationed within each district created by the Floyd County School system, including: Armuchee, Coosa, Model and Pepperell. These officers manage all law enforcement matters that occur with students during the school year and are the first line of defense in matters of security.
