At this time the detachment is asking individuals to call and make appointments for fingerprinting. The station can be reached at 780.542.4457.
The detachment is closed for public inquiries on all weekends (Saturday and Sunday) and statutory holidays.

Policing Survey Results

In January and February of 2021, an RCMP survey was made available to residents in Drayton Valley and surrounding areas to help establish policing priorities. See the results of the survey below!

For full survey results, click here.

Crime in the Community

Traditionally, the fall and winter months are when Police see a spike in vehicle thefts – primarily related to people starting their vehicles to warm them up before leaving.  Unfortunately criminals often use this opportunity to their advantage and capitalize on unlocked doors.

The following are some tips to prevent your vehicles from being stolen:

Utilize where you can, and if equipped, your vehicle’s remote start system.  This will allow your vehicle to start without fear of it being stolen, as it will shut off with any attempt to drive away. Consider installing a remote start system if you do not currently have one.

If you have to start your vehicle with the keys to keep it running, it’s recommended to stay inside the cab with your doors locked to prevent them being opened unexpectedly.  If you have a garage, consider parking it inside to prevent frost on your windows, however never start a car and warm it inside the garage – pull it out to warm it up!

A frequent cause of vehicle thefts is when drivers go inside a business “just for a few seconds” and leave the vehicle running, only to come out and find their vehicle gone.  Always shut off and lock your vehicle if leaving it alone.  Thieves will use these opportunities to steal vehicles.

Some car makers have systems available, with a valid subscription, to locate vehicles if they are stolen.  There are also several aftermarket suppliers that can GPS your vehicle as well.

Security means some inconvenience, but its better to be a little inconvenienced than to lose your vehicle to a moment of lapsed vigilance.

Theft of Valuables

In addition to car theft, theft of valuables from homes and businesses is also on the rise. In order to help police locate, and offer your valuables back to you upon seizure, please write down and store the serial numbers for all electronics. If you are able to identify the serial number of your phone, tablet, computer, etc. it will help the police get your stolen goods back to you more quickly!

While this is not an exhaustive list of tips, these will help residents keep their vehicles and belongings safe and secure!

For tips on how to protect your property from theft, review our Public Safety Brochure

The Drayton Valley RCMP detachment averages around 6,000 calls for service each year, ranging from criminal code investigations to community bylaw matters.

Be a Crime Fighter!

In order to assist with the investigation of ongoing and increasing property crime, the local Drayton Valley RCMP detachment wants to let residents who have any kind surveillance on their property know that they can now voluntarily register at KDraytonValleyCamera@rcmp-grc.gc.ca.

This is a voluntary service and only RCMP members will have access to your information. Your information will not be shared with anyone and will only be utilized if there is an investigation of a crime in your area.

The Drayton Valley Detachment has been quite busy over the last few months. Several search warrants have been executed in both the Town of Drayton Valley and Brazeau County which has led to recovery of stolen property, drugs, and money. The RCMP are working hard to protect all residents and keep you safe. If you notice anything suspicious, don’t hesitate to contact the Drayton Valley RCMP at 780-542-4456.
