Last week in numbers: Treaty Three Police Service calls for service

NORTHWESTERN ONTARIO — The Treaty Three Police Service say that in an effort to be more transparent they will release their incident call numbers on a weekly basis.

Their first release covers the dates of June 2 to 9, when officers responded to 470 calls for service. 

The top call reasons include proactive property checks (94 incidents), proactive community services calls (49), and responding to calls for police assistance (37). 

In the release, T3PS stated that these numbers represent priority categories and common types of calls, not all incidents, which may include lower-risk or administrative calls. 

T3PS is a self-administered policing entity under the First Nations Policing Program in Canada, responsible for full policing duties within the Treaty #3 territory.

The service has six detachments and polices 22 First Nations communities across Northwestern Ontario.
