Madison Heights Police Department

Please help us in congratulating now Sgt. Rayner, who was promoted earlier this week to Sergeant. We know you will be great in your new duties as Sergeant.

The Madison Heights Police Department would like your help in identifying these two individuals. They took something from the Madison Heights Library without checking out at the desk. If you recognize either one of the individuals, please contact Lt. David Koehler at 248-837-2732.

To combat the recent rise in stolen KIA and Hyundai vehicles, our department was supplied with a limited amount of steering wheel locks. These will be available at the Madison Heights Police Department front desk, FREE OF CHARGE, to the residents of Madison Heights (who own a Kia or Hyundai). Please bring your registration/title to the front desk to claim yours.

LIMITED SUPPLY, FIRST COME FIRST SERVE.

Happy Halloween from all of us here at the Madison Heights Police Department. Don't forget, Trick or Treating is a fun time for all but please help to keep it safe for everyone. Slow down and be alert! Kids are excited on Halloween and may dart into the street. Turn on headlights early in the day to spot kids from further away. Remind kids to cross the street at corners or crosswalks. If you are out Trick or Treating, cross the street at corners, using traffic signals and crosswalks. Look left, right and left again when crossing and keep looking as you cross. Put electronic devices down, keep heads up and walk, don't run, across the street. Teach children to make eye contact with drivers before crossing in front of them. If you see anything suspicious, please call us at 248-585-2100.

Trunk or treat at Civic Center Park was a blast. Can’t wait for next year!
