About Johnston Police

The Johnston Police Department is comprised of sixteen officers, three sergeants, a lieutnenant, the Chief of Police, an administrative assistant, and a records clerk. Every individual in the department is committed to the highest policing standards for both themselves and the community. Our department continually strives to serve the members of the Johnston community through community based policing events such as DARE, child safety seat inspections, Safety Town, and KID PIX.

Johnston has experienced tremendous growth during the past 10 years and the Police Department is continually seeking new ways to serve the expanding population effectively. We have taken a proactive approach to potential crime by adding officers to the department and keeping current on our training in order to control a problem before if affects the citizens of the community directly.
