Weehawken Police Department

The WPD is exceptional at community policing. Really wonderful, caring service and they do not cross any lines. They do an excellent job keeping our community safe.

For the second time in my 11 years as a Weehawken resident, the Weehawken PD has disappointed me. And I've only had to deal with them on these two occassions. In 2007 my car was broken into and the thief destroyed the ignition, stole an ez pass and other damages to the interior. The person left a receipt with their name and address (Brown Street in Union City) and the WPD DID NOTHING WITH THAT information. Laughed at me and left me to deal with the mess myself. Today I receive a parking ticket because surprise surprise NO PARKING AVAILABLE in town but the most heartless is the pay date is CHRISTMAS DAY. If there was ever proof of an overpaid greedy police department having to meet a QUOTA, this is it. Lost respect for this town which already lost all of its appeal.

I went down today to get some fingerprints done for an investigation. Everybody was very pleasant and efficient.

I lost my wallet so I decided to visit the police station without much expectation. I happened to encounter one police officer in front of the station who was very friendly and directed me to talk with other police officers inside, and one officer retrieved my lost wallet with big smile. I am so happy and grateful to the officers and the person who kind enough to pick up and leave my wallet at the station. So happy and proud to live in Weehawken! Thank you!

I’ve never had a worse interaction with an officer in my life. The officer was rude and condescending and accused me of being unfit to drive. If you’re ever wondering why the public despises you, it’s because of officers like that.
