Citrus Heights Police Department

My neighbor’ kids egged my car just before midnight on New Years Eve. I caught them and requested a patrol car to come out and take a report. The officers were nice but because it was just before midnight, they didn’t have time to really investigate. The following day, I noticed the eggs caused damage to the clear coat of my car. I called the dept. to please come out and witness the damage.
Last night, the father, Luke, denied his kids were involved. But today, Officer Light came out and was able to get Luke to admit his kids did egg my car and offered to pay to have it buffed out. A special thanks to Officer Light for his superior service. I guess when Luke realized they had no eggs to make breakfast, my story was true. Again, a very special thanks to Officer Light for going above the call of duty!!! Also a huge thanks to the girls in dispatch! Sorry I didn’t write down their names, but they too were excellent.

They do their jobs well. There’s protocol to things. Just because you don’t get the result you want doesn’t mean they’re not doing their job. There’s a system– to investigations, and there’s only so much they’re able to do. It’s not their fault, they have to follow the law like everyone else.
Very helpful, professional, I trust this PD. Thank you CHPD! God bless!

I had my trail agains office Coltharp today and the big chicken came up with a lame ass excuse that he forget his notes and couldn’t remember why he stopped me and had the case thrown out
Since it was dismissed because he’s a moron I have no recourse. I tried filing a complaint like the judge told me and again was told by the department that it’s ok that he got all the information incorrect on the ticket and since the case was dismissed then I can’t file anything
What a joke. Is this the kind of people we have that are supposed to protect us from criminals their criminals themselves with a badge and a gun that care nothing about keeping us safe
I proved without a shadow of a doubt how incompetent Mr Coltharp is yet the department won’t do anything. Are these the type of people you want running around out streets with guns strapped to their side and a license to shoot

I suppose if you’d like an officer to show up to help you, don’t call or live here. And I guess if they cant charge you, tow, impound you, or account you in any way shape or form they don’t care.
All they want is your $$, can’t I just be SAFE?

Got pulled over for being colored. He told he was fishing for drunk drivers. He thought it was funny.

Got robbed, brought the cops to the guy who did it, he had meth on him, dude gets released DAYS later. Just saying, police could do their jobs like the rest of us

I called CHPD las night via cellular 911 because a man was attacking a woman. I stopped my vehicle got and and tried yelling at the individual to get him off. Another person came at me and threatened me and had a pit bull. I felt unsafe so i got back in my vehicle and continued to contact 911. during this time they stopped fighting. during the fight I observed the man on top of the woman. anyway they both went diffrent direction. When CHPD got their detained the male half and started investigating and decided to arrest the female only because she had attacked him minutes earlier per her statement and statement of two others. I talked with officers and agree i did not see that incident but what i saw was a male who had tackled the female and was on top of the female. the female was fully defensive, and she gets arrested. So he should have been arrested also. After observing this I would have to say the most unequal application of the law I requested the supervisor who was not available but when he did call made it out I was the bad guys. I am not sure who to be more afraid of the criminals or CHPD. When the people have to fear the police we have no law!

A police department cannot just go in and shut down drug dealing. There has to be an investigation and that can sometimes take years. Don’t we all wish we lived in a fantasy world and we could complain about drug dealers and the cops come in and save the day?! Lol.
From what I’ve seen with this police department is they are very nice and respectful. They are helpful too when I contacted them to find out about a certain neighborhood before moving to Citrus Heights. It was very nice they took time out of their busy day to email me back regarding all my questions about the neighborhood I was looking at. Its a great sense of community feeling with this police department.

The is the best Police Department I’ve ever come across. Now I’m saying that based on very limited and mostly observatory experience of other departments — Galt, East Bay Area, Sacramento, Elk Grove, etc. None of them match the CHPD.
I say this because
a. I never see them humbugging anyone.
b. When they’re in full force THEY ARE IN FULL FORCE, like, airplane, helicopter, all the cars and trucks gonna get up in that ASS full force.
c. They’re always somewhere close by.
d. When you call about something you might think is silly, like, the windows shaking for no reason (that was a small explosion), they’re always willing to come by and check out the neighborhood without knocking on your door. Like within two minutes of your call.
e. I hardly ever see them loitering excessively at any place (like Starbucks) at anytime and they’re the ONLY cops I’ve ever seen use the drive thru, like they don’t have time to be shooting the shit at Starbucks, right?
When I lived downtown by myself, SWF, some unknown male came and pounded on my door at midnight and said he was going to come inside and murder me. I’m serious, he said it just like that and damaged the door trying to get in. I called the 911 like 4 times and no one came. Luckily for me, the guy who was threatening me wasn’t after me personally and he realized that he got the wrong house and started banging on the door again and told me he didn’t want to kill me and that he was sorry for the inconvenience and that he was embarrassed about the damage. You can’t make this shit up. I told him OK, feel free to leave immediately, I got the door and I’ll fix it myself later when it’s not 1 am but thanks for offering and for not killing me.
Anyway I was scared shitless and the Sac cops never showed up after I called them all night and they never even called the next day to see that I was alive. I couldn’t sleep all night wondering if that dude was waiting for me to accidentally come out or something. It really pisses me off. I always see them at Starbucks on Alhambra and my old place was on the way, so after that it put a really foul taste in my mouth for the Sac PD. I never dated any of them so I don’t get why they didn’t show up. THIS IS A JOKE. Maybe the guy is a repeat offender and that’s just what he does-​knock on doors and tells women he’s going to kill them in jest and then apologizes and runs off. I really don’t know. But my common sense tells me even if that were the case dude needs to get hauled off anyway.
I’m pretty sure though, if I had a similar situation here in the Hizzy, I would get the helicopter treatment. These guys are really good, and are actually like public servants. They always say hello and smile. It totally contradicts the whole asshole cop idea. It’s also good to know I don’t have to rely on some criminal’s detective work and/​or conscience in order to escape being murdered because the police won’t come, in other words.
