Richmond RCMP Is Taking Precautions In Response To The COVID-19 Pandemic

In order to protect the public, our volunteers and our employees, the Richmond RCMP is making the following temporary changes in response to COVID-19.

South Arm Community Police Office is now closed until further notice.

Steveston Community Police Office is now closed until further notice.

All front counter services including but not limited to; Civilian Fingerprinting Services, Criminal Record or Police Information checks and found property will not be conducted until further notice.

If you are exhibiting symptoms including fever, coughing and difficulty breathing, do not come to the Detachment for any police services.

These changes are being taken as a preventative measure and do not affect 9-1-1 service or calls to our non-emergency police line 604-278-1212. Both of those services continue to be offered 24-hours a day, 7 days a week.

Our priority continues to be community safety and security. We are taking these measures to help ensure core policing duties will not be impacted. We appreciate your continued support and understanding.

We would also like to remind the public that you can report crimes using the Online Crime Reporting tool.
