Abbotsford Police Department opens satellite office at Highstreet shopping mall
ABBOTSFORD — While it won’t be open 24 hours a day nor will it be equipped to take police reports in person, the Abbotsford Police Department was still optimistic Tuesday (May 30) in announcing that its new satellite police office will be located at Highstreet Shopping Centre on Mount Lehman Road.
“This location will provide our frontline officers a platform to connect with our community in the west Abbotsford region,” Sgt. Paul Walker said in a statement. “Throughout the summer, AbbyPD will be hosting our community pop-up events at our Highstreet location for a chance to connect in person with our community. These events offer set days and times where the public can meet the police and discuss various community topics and concerns that are important to them.”
Abbotsford residents wishing to make a police report are asked to proceed to the police department’s online reporting for non-emergency crimes, or by calling its non-emergency number at 604-859-5225. All crimes in progress are to be reported by calling 9-1-1.
“At Primaris REIT, our parent company, we proudly embrace our role in shaping and supporting our communities. Our team at Highstreet Shopping Centre looks forward to supporting the Abbotsford Police Department in their effort to making Abbotsford a safe place for everyone,” said Lee Quesnelle, property manager for Highstreet Shopping Centre.
