The Auburn Police Department responded to 2,832 calls for service in June, continuing a high operational tempo that reflects both law enforcement duties and a strong community presence, according to the department’s monthly activity report.
The data, which covers a range of criminal and quality-of-life issues, shows that officers investigated 77 juvenile complaints and made 73 adult arrests last month. No juvenile arrests were reported. Police also executed 14 warrants and conducted 233 traffic stops, issuing 75 traffic tickets.
Among the most frequent incidents investigated were suspicious activity (184 reports), domestic violence (90 cases), and larceny (33 investigations). Officers also responded to 13 personal injury crashes and 73 property-damage vehicle accidents.
Mental health-related calls remain a significant part of the department’s workload, with 26 investigations in June alone. Officers also handled 15 suicide attempt cases and 12 missing person investigations.
In addition to fieldwork, Auburn police expanded efforts to engage with the community. The department took part in several high-profile public events, including a Stop DWI awareness event and a series of Juneteenth celebrations in collaboration with local churches and community groups.
The department’s School Resource Officers responded to 36 incidents across Auburn schools, including criminal cases, bullying, and property issues. Officers also supported school events such as graduation and family engagement nights.
Detectives worked 26 new cases and closed 16, resulting in one arrest involving two felony charges and one misdemeanor. The Identification Bureau processed 87 memory cards and submitted 22 pieces of evidence to the crime lab. Officers also monitored compliance for 151 registered sex offenders in the City of Auburn.
Meanwhile, the department continued to prioritize officer development. The Training and Planning Division delivered over 1,700 hours of training across key areas including emergency response and firearms qualification. Six new recruits also completed another month of training at the police academy.
Public recognition also marked the month: Sgt. McDeid and Sgt. Turner were honored with a pinning ceremony at City Hall, and Chief Androsko threw the ceremonial first pitch during the “Pitching in for Anti-Violence” event at Falcon Park.
A highlight from June included Officer Henderson helping a young child try on police gear at the Page Trucking event in Weedsport—a snapshot of the department’s growing emphasis on community connection.
