Rossville Police Department

Rossville Police Department Message from the Chief Welcome to the page for the Rossville (Kansas) Police Department.

The purpose of this page is to give the Citizens of Rossville that we serve an inside look at what goes on with their Police Department. We will share interesting information such as major crimes that have occurred in our area, sexual offenders that we come into contact with in our community, drug arrests we make, raids we perform, and other information about our operations that our Citizens may b

e interested in knowing. This page is designed to inform the Citizens we protect of Police activities that they may otherwise not be aware of. It is not a forum for complaints or debates as these types of issues should be brought to the attention of the Chief of Police either by calling or visiting the department in person. We will update this page as regularly as possible but it is NOT an emergency information distribution method. If you have a problem, an issue, a tip, or an emergency please call 911 immediately. We hope you enjoy this page and encourage you to tell your friends and fellow Citizens of Rossville about it!
