Riverbank Police Services (RPS) deputies have had a number of calls for service this past week including DUI, collisions, illegal drugs, and theft.

Officials noted that within the next two weeks they will be adding two additional camera systems in the city as well. One of the cameras will be posted up at the Skate Park to provide oversight and the second one will be placed at Pioneer Park. It was reported that the additional systems would provide additional safety and security to residents that enjoy those public places. RPS will also continue to coordinate engagement and outreach with the homeless population in Riverbank.
