Jurisdiction and responsibilities

The department is the municipal police organization serving Chadbourn, North Carolina, in Columbus County. Its town or city role is distinct from the county sheriff and from any campus or special-purpose agency operating nearby.

How the agency is organized

The county's official resource guide identifies Chadbourn Police as a separate municipal agency and supplies a police address and telephone number. The department also has a dedicated collision-report retrieval system. Current specialist units and staffing are not established by the reviewed official material.

Official records and officer resources

Use the county-listed department telephone for current service routing. The collision-report system is for locating crash records, not for reporting an emergency or filing an employment grievance.
