Criminal Investigation Division  

C.I.D. is a specialized unit within the Dickinson Police Department that deals with all aspects of crimes and criminal intelligence. C.I.D. receives reports from the Patrol Division on a daily basis and all reports are reviewed for solvability factors. 

Every report is reviewed, logged and disseminated to the proper Detective for follow up. All assignments are reviewed, then given out for follow up by the C.I.D. supervisor or his designee. C.I.D. is divided into several different sections all of which require unique and specialized training. 

Because of the vast experience of the current C.I.D personnel, citizens of Dickinson have a dynamic investigative group second to none.
