Uniformed Patrol

The most visible section of the Morrow County Sheriff's Office is Uniformed Patrol. The patrol deputies are often the only members of the Sheriff's Office with whom the public has personal interaction.  As the first to respond to dispatched calls, the deputies represent not only patrol, but also the Morrow County Sheriff's Office as a whole.

Uniformed Patrol is responsible for responding to all calls for police service, both criminal and non-criminal. Deputies travel over 300,000 miles per year and respond to more than 11,000 calls for police service. They respond to assaults, kidnappings, domestic violence crimes, burglaries, robberies, shootings, drug complaints, deceased persons, juvenile problems, missing persons, animal and driving complaints. Deputies routinely enforce traffic laws, investigate traffic crashes, provide search and rescue (SAR), conduct prisoner transports, marine patrol, and serve criminal subpoenas and civil process.

The Morrow County Sheriff's Office provides police services contracts to the cities of Heppner and Irrigon.

Uniformed Patrol consists of eight patrol deputies and two patrol sergeants.

Each member is dedicated to providing service to all of the citizens of Morrow County.
