Midland Police Department

The Midland Police Department's Patrol Division is responsible for law enforcement duties that include serving warrants, traffic services, crime prevention, and patrolling Midland streets and neighborhoods. The Division is comprised of men and women who perform their duties on one of four 12-hour shifts.

In a single shift, a patrol officer will handle minor calls for service such as a traffic hazard in the roadway, a bat in someone’s house, or a request to check property at an area business or residence. Patrol officers handle complex emotional and potentially lethal calls for service such as domestic assaults, burglaries, and altercations. In addition, patrol officers must keep up with the many reports required of today’s law enforcement officials.

The Patrol Division responds to calls for service and patrols more than 36 square miles within the city limits.    

Midland residential population is approximately 42,000. That number easily grows by more than 10,000 during the daytime hours when people work, visit, and play in Midland.
