As in most Police Departments the Patrol Division of the Manchester Police Department is the backbone
of the Department.
Patrol accounts for 70% of the sworn personnel employed by the Department.
Due in large part to the efforts of the members
of the Patrol division the Manchester Police Department has earned a reputation for strict enforcement of the Ohio Motor
Vehicle Laws, making the roadways safer for all of us.
The Patrol Division provides a staff of highly trained and qualified
officers and supervisors that work hard in providing basic patrol functions and emergency response to the Village.
