The Van Buren Police Department CID team has a high success rate of crimes solved, ranging all the way from check fraud to homicide.  

CID processes crime scenes for evidence, interviews victims, witnesses and suspects, and manages many other aspects of the investigative process. Our detectives receive advanced levels of training for crime scene process, interview techniques, and investigation of various types of crimes. We work with many outside agencies, such as the Prosecuting Attorney, during the course of these criminal investigations. Our detectives are part of the ASP CART Team (Child Abduction Response Team), are on the State ICAC Taskforce (Internet Crimes Against Children) and the local Drug Task Force. We also process any registered sex offenders for the City of Van Buren. We have trained detectives that work diligently to make the internet a safer place for our children by actively pursuing child pornographers and sexual predators.
