Crime in our patrol area is mainly theft due to open garage doors, burglary of motor vehicles, and criminal mischief. More serious crimes are a rarity in the Westpoint / Chapel Creek area.  One of the fastest growing crimes, both in our area as well as nationwide, is mailbox theft. Due to increasing identity theft, consider taking mail to the local post office.

Fort Worth Citizens on Patrol

What is C.O.P.?  Citizens on Patrol act as the eyes and ears for the police department.  We do not confront or get involved. Patrollers carry police radios with a base operator listening for any calls. Patrollers are checked on every 15 minutes. Their location is logged.  Patrollers have access to police department channels in case of an emergency.

People from all over the nation have come to Fort Worth for information on the success of this program in our city. With the reduction of crime, the interest by citizens has declined and recruitment has become difficult.  If this program went away, it is very likely that neighborhoods would see an increase in crime once again.  Our vehicles, with identifying signs, usually discourages the criminal element from considering our neighborhood.  Criminals are very aware of the C.O.P. Program, and admit that seeing a vehicle with our patrol signs makes them leave the area.

For more information, please visit the Fort Worth C.O.P. website.

How to become part of the C.O.P.:
Training Classes are held in the auditorium at the Police Training Center at 1000 Calvert. Interested individuals may return their application before the date of class to the Code Blue West Division Coordinator, Gerald Huck, who can be reached at 817.392.4706.  All classes are held on a Saturday from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm.
