Our online utility bill pay system is currently down. The software vendor is looking into the issue. In the meantime, we will not proceed with shut-offs as scheduled for 2/28/23 and will update the timeline when the system returns. You can still pay by credit card, check or cash at City Hall.

PD_patrol_drivingPolice not only want to catch criminals but also build solid cases so that the prosecutors, judges and juries have plenty of facts and evidence in court.  Sumner has two detectives who analyze crime scenes, collect evidence, interview victims and witnesses, and interrogate suspects.

Hours of thorough report writing and inclusive preparation are essential for the judicious resolution of a case.  It is the detective who starts at the crime scene and follows the case through to court disposition.

You can help! If you think you saw or know something that would help an investigation, you can leave a message on the detectives’ Tip Line at 253-299-5678.

The Sumner Police Evidence Section tracks evidence and manages property that is found. Click here for more information about the property room and unclaimed items.
