In Case of ALL Emergencies call 9-1-1

The primary mission of the Fairburn Police Department is "to provide outstanding police service to the community and promote a peaceful living environment for our residents." The police department enforces the law in a fair and impartial manner, recognizing both the statutory and judicial limitations of police authority and the constitutional rights of all persons. The police department recognizes that no law enforcement agency can operate at its maximum potential without supportive input from the citizens it serves. The department actively solicits and encourages the cooperation of all citizens to reduce and limit the opportunities for crime. To facilitate the optimum use of resources for crime suppression, we urge citizens to call 911 to report suspicious persons or activities.
