Front Line Constables

On the front lines, the constables of the Belleville Police Service strive to make Belleville the safest community in Ontario. Whether it be assisting and supporting people in traumatic events, responding to theft calls or lending a helping hand when needed, our constables are skilled to handle a variety of situations.

Constables patrol the city through all hours of the day, performing duties that include following up on traffic violations, carrying out warrants and searching for reported missing persons. While some days might be busier than others, officers are always ready to expect the unexpected.

Cst. Christopher Tijssen says the aspect of the job he enjoys the most is following up with the people he helps. “You get to see things through, you get to find what happens to the people you meet and you get to make sure they are going to be alright.”

Cst. Andrea Boulay also shares this sentiment, “There’s no other job that has this much of an ability to impact the community in a positive way.”

The goal of the service is to make Belleville the safest community in Ontario. What will make that a reality is communication and teamwork between the citizens of Belleville and the police. The officers in the service are always happy to help whoever is in need.
