“The Battlefords RCMP Detachment is one of the busiest in the province – and last night was one of the busiest nights so far this summer,” says S/Sgt. Bryce Pender from the Battlefords RCMP. “We wanted to share a glimpse of the behind-the-scenes on nights like this. From our dispatchers at the Saskatchewan RCMP’s Operational Communications Centre to our frontline officers to our specialized policing services, we are working together to keep the Battlefords area safe 24/7.”
