Essex County OPP
Detachment Commander's Message
Welcome to the new and improved Essex County OPP website. New features have been added to enhance your viewing experience and we look forward to your feedback.
Officers from the Essex County OPP are proud to provide policing services to the communities of Essex, Kingsville, Lakeshore, Leamington, Pelee Island and Tecumseh.
This past year we made several changes to our service delivery, including the creation of a Street Team dedicated to investigating street-level criminal offences and a significant expansion of our Major Crime unit.
Our patrol officers utilize the intelligence-led policing model and community input to tailor their enforcement activities. As many have seen, our Community Services officers are in your schools and in your community.
I would like to close by reiterating the commitment of the Ontario Provincial Police to earn your trust every day as we work together to maintain safe and secure communities.
Thank you
Inspector R.E. (Rick) Derus
