Jurisdiction and responsibilities
Williamston Police is the municipal department for Martin County’s seat. Its South Haughton Street location is separate from the sheriff’s East Main Street office.
How the agency is organized
The town describes patrol, detective and administrative functions and divides community-policing work into five zones. It also provides educational and community-program information. Undated sworn-personnel totals are not repeated as a current staffing measure.
Official records and officer resources
Use the official town page for program and administrative contacts. A specific incident report or employee-policy inquiry should identify Williamston Police. Cooperation with the sheriff or SBI in a case does not mean the town department holds all of those agencies’ records.
