Daily Crime Report Discontinued
The Richmond Police Department will no longer prepare and email the Daily Crime Report.

Information contained in the Daily Crime Report may now be accessed by using a crime mapping service called RAIDS Online. It may be accessed here: www.richmondgov.com/police  or here: www.raidsonline.com

RAIDS Online will email you a list of reported crimes but, YOU MUST SIGN UP.

To begin the process, please click on Virginia on the RAIDS Online national map, then:

1.       In the menu of cities, select Richmond, VA.

2.       Click on the link “Sign up for crime alerts” in the upper right-hand corner of the page.

3.       In the address-line, type in an address of interest and select a radius. For the whole city, type in Belle Isle, Richmond, VA and select the five mile radius.

4.       Choose the “daily email” option for alerts every Monday through Friday.

Please note: overnight crime incidents are uploaded twice – Monday through Friday - at:

1.       11:00 p.m. – ensures the next day’s email contains most of the prior day’s reported crimes.

2.       6:00 a.m. – updates the crime map with crimes reported overnight.

(Uploads can take up to 40 minutes to complete)

In addition to the email option, RAIDS Online can be used in other ways to keep you informed about crime in your neighborhood.

Today’s Good News
Kudos to Crime Analyst Supervisor Renee Tate and Crime Analyst Karrie Toland who were recognized with our A Step Above award for June for their good work assisting the Chesterfield Police Department last month.

We are recognizing this talented pair after we received a very complimentary note from CPD who received their help during a recent crime analysis presentation and demonstration. “Ms. Tate and Ms. Toland did an outstanding job discussing and demonstrating the capabilities of your department’s crime analysis and mapping application to members of my staff, department, and Chesterfield County IST,” the CPD captain wrote.

“Ms. Tate and Ms. Toland were also able to answer a myriad of questions ranging from application setup and use to vendor specific IT related concerns and requirements. We were all very impressed with their overall application knowledge and the system's capabilities.

“Their knowledge and experience with this application has greatly assisted me and other department members with an objective overview and recommendation of the application and vendor. Their demonstration also highlighted and confirmed the regional benefit and need for the application.

“I greatly appreciate Renee Tate and Karrie Toland being allowed to meet with us regarding this matter. The professionalism displayed and level of knowledge shown to members of my department reflects positively on them and your department.”

We couldn’t have said it any better ourselves! Thank you and congratulations to Renee Tate and Karrie Toland, our “A Step Above” winners for June!

Today’s Good News
Kudos to First Precinct Officer Harold Ford who was named the Department’s Problem Solver of the Month for June! Officer Ford took the lead the last month after the precinct received several complaints about an after-hours club in Sector 112. The club was generating several calls for service every weekend and was the nexus for numerous violent crimes in the Blackwell and Manchester neighborhoods as many of the offenders and victim were either heading to or from the club.

Over three separate weekends, Officer Ford partnered with ABC agents and conducted operations that culminated in the execution of two search warrants early one morning, charging the club owners with several misdemeanors and alcohol violations. Additionally, other employees were charged with drug and firearm offenses. But the icing on the cake of the endeavor was that in working with city inspectors, the location was condemned due to electrical, plumbing and structural issues.

Since the club’s closures, several community members have emailed to praise Officer Ford’s efforts, saying how thankful they are to finally have some peace and quiet in the area. Thank you and good work, Officer Harold Ford—our Problem Solver of the Month for June!

Kudos to Communications Officer Tiffany Ampy who was named the Department’s Communications Officer of the Month for June! Try as they might, our communications officers don’t always get as much information as they’d like when individuals call 911. That’s why we rely on their detailed skills to gather as much information as quickly and kindly as possible when they’re dealing with people in crisis.

CO Ampy did just that under some of the most serious of circumstances last month when a citizen called to report an individual who had been shot. The caller’s only information about location was that they were on Decatur Street near a recycling shop. Even with such limited information, CO Ampy determined that the victim was at Decatur and 25th streets and quickly dispatched officers.

CO Ampy then kept the caller on the phone while she remained patient and demonstrated compassion. She listened intently, evaluating and assessing the situation and asking pertinent questions that provided immediate assistance to the victim.

Thanks in large part to her efforts, the victim was quickly located and taken to the hospital where he is now recovering from his injuries. Keep up the great work, Tiffany Ampy, our Communications Officer of the Month for June!

Kudos to Officer Andrew Nicholson who was named Third Precinct’s Officer of the Month for June!
From speedy responses to citizen requests to proactive policing, Officer Nicholson is always on the move, constantly looking for ways to make the community an even better place.

One of the ways he did that last month was by meeting with several concerned citizens in the Forest View neighborhood to advise them on ways to prevent them from becoming victims of car break-ins and burglaries. He also informed them about trends in nearby neighborhoods to make sure they were fully aware.

Officer Nicholson was also quick to respond to a citizen complaint about drug dealing at a residence, setting up surveillance and talking with the residents at the conclusion of his investigation. As a result of his efforts, the residents cleaned up the area and the actions ceased. He’s kept on eye on the place since then and seen no further problems. These are just a few of the reasons Officer Andrew Nicholson is our Third Precinct Officer of the Month! Thank you and congratulations!
