Frequently Asked Questions

Any person who witnesses or has direct knowledge of police employee misconduct may make a complaint with the Salt River Police Department. The Salt River Police Department will investigate any employee actions that are contrary to Police Department policy or a violation of tribal, state or federal law or discourteous treatment. Generally, complaints are filed through the supervisor of the involved employee. If you do not know the employee's supervisor, you may file the complaint with the Salt River Police Department's Professional Standards Bureau. A complaint may be filed in person, by telephone or mail. Be prepared to furnish essential information such as the employee's name, locations, report numbers, dates and times. Visit the Professional Standards Bureau page for more information.
