4 Message from the Chief of Police The 2015 Annual Report represents the fourth time that I have reported to you on the yearly details of the Owen Sound Police Service. While it is always said when presenting these reports that I am proud of this organization and the people that serve their community daily, I am always amazed at how much work is being done. The past year was very trying on the organization with a homicide in the late winter and the arsons of August. We didn t survive these occurrences but rather we thrived on the support from the community and worked harder to keep the residents assured that their community was safe. Our community is so much more than bricks and mortar and volunteers help to make it the great place it is. It is the same in the Police Service as our COPS program and our Auxiliaries help us to keep the City safe, secure and enjoyable. It s hard to capsulate an entire year into a written 47 page report but the information found within will help you understand what our members do every day being Community Partners. Sincerely, William B. Sornberger Chief of Police 4 Annual Report 2015

7 Our Community The City of Owen Sound is located on the southern shores of Georgian Bay in a valley below the sheer rock cliffs of the Niagara Escarpment. Owen Sound boasts a thriving Federal harbour that is utilized for industrial shipping and recreational boating. The Owen Sound harbour is home for the Chi-Cheemaun ferry during its off-season ferry service from Tobermory to Manitoulin Island. The Sydenham River and Potawatomi Rivers run through Owen Sound with the Sydenham River boasting a salmon ladder to facilitate the migration of spawning salmon. The salmon ladder at the Owen Sound Mill Dam attracts thousands of tourists and local residents annually. The shipping and manufacturing economy of the city flourished in the latter part of the 1800s and early 1900s and magnificent brick homes and commercial buildings are plentiful in the central area of the city. Surrounding the older city core is a mixture of newer and older neighbourhoods along with a modern industrial park and shopping complexes. With a resident population of 22,000, Owen Sound is the largest urban community in Grey and Bruce Counties, representing the focal point for business, retail and professional services. In addition, Federal and Provincial offices offer a wide variety of government services. These services significantly increase the daily population served within the City Of Owen Sound. Owen Sound has long been a popular destination for a vast choice of outdoor recreational activities and sport. The community is also well known for a wide spectrum of events and attractions related to arts, music and culture. The natural beauty of Owen Sound and area, combined with an abundance of activities and services, has made Owen Sound an attractive retirement community of choice.

8 Our Police Service The Owen Sound Police Service remains committed to providing the residents and visitors of Owen Sound with highest level of policing while acknowledging the financial challenges faced by many communities. Our police service continues to be leaders in the province in providing professional, costeffective communication services to police and fire services in Grey and Bruce counties and other Ontario communities. Providing these services helps share the staffing and infrastructure costs associated with operating an emergency communication centre in addition to providing increased local employment opportunities. The Owen Sound Police Service continues to explore innovative opportunities to enhance criminal investigation, crime prevention and community education. Changes in technology have created new challenges for police services and their capacity to respond in a more global manner. Our training and recruitment has reflected these changes. Our Police Service continues to work collaboratively with our community partners to provide the most effective and appropriate resources to enhance the overall social wellness of Owen Sound and communities of Grey and Bruce Counties. The Owen Sound Police is helping to lead an enhanced community wellness initiative made possible through a grant funding proposal to the Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services. In 2015, both police and civilian members of the Owen Sound Police Service worked tirelessly and professionally in responding to multiple arsons that occurred during one summer evening. The quick intervention of our members, community members and emergency services, prevented any serious injury or fatalities. In addition to the timely apprehension of the suspects, members of our service continued to support the victims through fund-raising efforts. The entire community rallied together to help mitigate the effect that this devastating event had on our community. 8 Annual Report 2015

Our Citizens Online Reporting System (C.O.P.R.S.) allows citizens the convenience of reporting some criteria specific occurrences on-line. Convenient methods of requesting criminal record checks and other reports on line, has been implemented along with instructional videos, available on our website at ( Our Service has also undertaken a commitment to improve our website to make it more functional and user-friendly. Our community will notice these changes as we continue to develop in these areas in 2016 and beyond. The Owen Sound Police Service is also responsible for providing security to the Owen Sound Consolidated Courthouse. In 2014, the Owen Sound Police Service enhanced court security with the use of electronic screening of all persons entering the courthouse, by means of an electromagnetic scanning device. Security processes were further enhanced in 2015 with the introduction of an x-ray device which provides the effective and efficient examination of bags, purses and packages entering the courthouse. The Owen Sound Police Service remains committed to maintaining the health and wellness of our staff. We have strengthened our commitment to improve awareness and preventative strategies in the areas of physical and mental health, as the men and women of the Owen Sound Police serve our community, at times under some very challenging and stressful situations.

14 Uniform Patrol The backbone of any police service is its frontline uniform patrol. These officers are also the most visible ambassadors and representatives of our police service. The dedicated men and women of the Owen Sound Police Service uniform patrol provide emergency and non-emergency response to a wide variety of occurrences, such as crimes of all types, vehicle collisions, medical emergencies and missing persons to name a few. These officers must be skilled in investigation, crisis management, counseling and use of force options when situations dictate. The uniform patrol branch of the Owen Sound Police Service, works within a four platoon rotation system. The officers work a 12-hour shift rotation. Each platoon is provided with 24-7 on-duty supervision by a platoon Sergeant. In addition to the Sergeant, an Operations Inspector provides oversight to the uniform patrol branch. Each platoon has members who possess specialized training in criminal investigation, scenes of crime and intoxilyzer technicians. Other specialized training includes collision investigation and ground searches. The patrol officers utilize various means of patrol including marked and unmarked police vehicles, motorcycle, bicycle or foot patrol. When the uniform officers are not responding to calls for service, they engage in various proactive or crime prevention activities such as directed mobile patrol, foot patrol, R.I.D.E. checks or traffic enforcement. The officers also liaise with various members of the community in order to gain a better understanding of community concerns and issues. Uniform patrol officers routinely provide support to the Criminal Investigation Branch and Drug Unit. Maintaining traffic safety is an important function of the uniform patrol branch. To assist with efforts in this area the Owen Sound Police Service employs two part-time officers dedicated to traffic enforcement and education. The Owen Sound Police also has a portable radar traffic trailer which has a large display reminding drivers of their speed. The traffic trailer is deployed in strategic areas of community concern and has computerized capabilities to analyze traffic patterns, volume and speed. 14 Annual Report 2015

15 Criminal Investigations Branch The Criminal Investigation Branch works in conjunction with and provides highly skilled investigative support to the uniform branch. The detectives investigate all types of criminal offences, missing persons, intelligence gathering and any matter of the safety and security of the community. The detectives are responsible for the investigation of all major crime that occurs within the policing jurisdiction of the Owen Sound Police Service. The Branch is comprised of four Units; Criminal Investigations, Drugs & Intelligence and the Community Oriented Response Unit (CORE). There are a total of seven officers assigned to these units, and a supervising Detective Sergeant. Despite each Unit operating under distinct mandates, their continued success in fulfilling the individual unit goals was accomplished through cooperative enforcement strategies. In 2015, investigators were tasked with several major investigations including a multiple residential arson case and a homicide investigation. A homicide occurred in the city in mid January This incident was investigated by our Criminal Investigation Branch with assistance from the OPP Major Cases Section resulting in one man being charged with first degree murder. On August 10, 2016, several fires occurred in the city resulting in devastating losses to several families. Fortunately no injuries or fatalities occurred at the family homes where most residents were sleeping at the time. The incident resulted in a major investigation between the Criminal Investigation Branch and the Ontario Fire Marshalls Office. All investigators were utilized during these major investigations. The unit also investigated several serious assaults, sexual assaults, frauds and property crimes during the year. The criminal element utilizes the newest technology in order to facilitate their crimes. As a result the Police Service has continued to advance in this area with the purchase of equipment and training of investigators which has increased the success of apprehending criminals. The branch also maintains the new Citizens Online Police Reporting System. The system, accessible through the police service web site allows citizens to report lost property and crimes such as mischief and theft under $5000 directly to the police service from their personal computer. The CIB officer reviews the report and downloads it to the records branch where it is added to the records management system. A free printable report is immediately available to the citizen. Annual Report

16 Drug and Intelligence Unit The Drug & Intelligence Unit work in a dual role as both Drug Enforcement Officers and Intelligence Officers. Within the Intelligence role the Officers are members of the Criminal Intelligence Service of Ontario (CISO). They attend regular meetings and participate in the provincial sharing of intelligence. As a member of CISO they are required to maintain an intelligence database, by inputting Owen Sound information as it pertains to serious or organized crime impacting other regions throughout the province. This CISO membership is valuable to the Owen Sound Police through the building of relationships with other Services, access to additional resources and assistance in multi-jurisdictional investigations. In 2015 The Drug Unit experienced a trend in Owen Sound where methamphetamine trafficking and use is becoming more prevalent. In 2015 the Drug Unit executed numerous Controlled Drugs and Substances search warrants seizing methamphetamine, cocaine, marihuana, the synthetic drug MDEA, fentanyl and other prescription opiates as well as cash proceeds, firearms and weapons. During the year the Drug Unit also participated in joint forces operations with Saugeen Shores Police Service and the South Bruce and Wiarton Detachments of the OPP. Owen Sound Police provided technical support during the OPP investigations and the unit executed a drug warrant in Port Elgin targeting a methamphetamine and cocaine dealers with ties to Owen Sound. During 2015 the unit was also called upon to assist in major investigations including a homicide and the major arson investigation. During the course of their investigations in 2015 the Drug Unit received valuable assistance from members of the Criminal Investigations Branch including the CORE Unit and the Uniform Branch. The co -operation between all units within the Owen Sound Police Service was crucial in the results produced for Annual Report 2015

17 Forensic Identification Unit Forensics is a field of science dedicated to the methodical gathering and analysis of evidence to establish facts that can be presented in a legal proceeding. The Forensic Identification Unit provides investigative support to the Criminal Investigation Branch and the Uniformed Branch and is staffed by one full time Special Constable and a part-time by a patrol Constable. Both members receive provincially accredited training in their discipline. The Unit is supported by five scenes of crimes officers (SOCO). These are general patrol officers who receive training in the collection and documenting of fingerprints and footwear at crime scenes. The Unit is responsible for the collection, documentation, preservation and packaging of physical evidence. These specialists attend crime scenes in search of evidence that can include fingerprints, footwear impressions, trace/fiber evidence, and biological samples for DNA analysis. They conduct physical matching, prepare charts and scale crime scene drawings, and seize physical evi- dence for submissions to the Centre of Forensic Sciences. In addition, the Identification Officer is mainly responsible for fingerprinting charged persons and conducting fingerprint comparisons of friction ridge impressions found at crime scenes. Fingerprints and DNA evidence often provide important information regarding the perpetrators of offences. Annual Report

In 2015, fifteen guns were taken in by the OSPS, including two handguns, eight rifles, and five shotguns. Changes to firearm regulations in 2009 required police services to document all firearms in their possession with both the Canadian Firearms Registry and the Provincial Weapons Enforcement Unit. This included all service firearms as well as protected firearms from the public. All firearms surrendered by the public, as well as some of those seized in criminal cases are destroyed on site by a third-party company which specializes in this service.

Other services that are provided include technical support for computer and cell phone forensics, video capture from closed circuit monitoring (CCTV), and obtaining telephone recordings. The IT department supports our encrypted radio system, mobile computing from the cruisers and GPS technology. These mission critical systems are available 24/7 and provide the frontline officer with the information tools necessary to meet their mandate of a safe and secure community. These services along with others are extended to a number of emergency services that are dispatched by the Owen Sound Police Service.

Our Safe Driving Education program again visited all of our high schools in Owen Sound. This very unique and highly interactive program not only educates our teenagers on the dangers of Impaired and Distracted Driving but goes one step further, putting students through realistic simulated situations. Participants may perform distracted driving coordination tests or operate a battery powered go-cart, that handles the same as a real car, through a course set up in the gymnasium. The unique experience begins when the police officer flips a switch on a remote control which causes a very short delay in the reaction of the steering, gas and breaking systems of the go cart. This very short delay simulates how quickly a driver can become distracted while texting, eating or simply chatting with passengers in their car. It also allows the students to experience, in a safe environment, the feeling of impairment and how alcohol and drugs can delay your reactions and your ability to safely operate a motor vehicle. Every student has a unique individual experience during the program and all have expressed how much of a learning experience it was. This program has garnered the attention of neighbouring jurisdictions who requested it be demonstrated for their local schools. The Owen Sound Police Service s Positive Choices Community Village continued attending each elementary school in Owen Sound. This portable village delivers interactive safety lessons to every elementary school student in Owen Sound from kindergarten to grade 8. Additionally every Grade 6 student receives the KIDS (Knowledge, Issues, Decisions, Supports) program. The KIDS Program is delivered by a qualified officer who attends each Grade 6 class once a week for 10 weeks and discusses important information surrounding drugs, alcohol, peer pressure, social media safety and mental health. The Owen Sound Police are proud of all our KIDS program graduates and honour each graduating class with a formal ceremony at the conclusion of the program. 28 Annual Report 2015

29 The Community Services Office organized several Community events to help support our youth and raise money for local charities. Some of the events included: Road Hockey for Radiology, the 2 nd Annual Skatepark Jam, the Cufflinks Golf Tournament and the #owensoundstrong barbeque. In addition to our Community Services Unit delivering safety presentations to many community groups on topics such as; Frauds and Scams, Counterfeit prevention, Home security, Safe Driving, and Street Smarts we also attend numerous public events. In 2015 it was our pleasure to attend the Keystone Family Fun Day, Canada Day Celebrations, Salmon Spectacular, Hottest Yard Sale, Health Fair and Senior Fair to name a few. These events are a joy to attend, allowing us the opportunity to interact with the public, deliver safety tips and do it all in a very fun and interactive way. The Community BBQ continues to be offered to not-for-profit organizations throughout the year for only the cost of the propane. Numerous community groups and organization borrowed the BBQ in 2015 resulting in several thousand dollars being raised to support their local projects. Buster our crime fighting mascot is now a fun fixture in our community. Buster attends as many events as possible and is always ready for a photograph with both young and old. Buster always has a pocket full of OSPS tattoos, a bag full of OSPS activity books and some special OSPS gifts to hand out. The Community Services Unit is a proud part of our community. We at the Owen Sound Police Service are dedicated to supporting our community whether it is through safety education or simply by being part of the many fantastic community events that we are blessed to have in Owen Sound. Annual Report

30 Auxiliary Police Unit The Auxiliary Unit is an integral part of the Owen Sound Police Service with a proud history dating back to its formation in Since its inception the Auxiliary Unit has remained dedicated to providing the citizens of Owen Sound with thousands of volunteer hours. There are many citizens who wish to experience police work through active involvement. The Owen Sound Police Auxiliary Unit offers a unique opportunity for citizens to become a vital part of the police organization in a volunteer capacity. The Auxiliary Constables spend many hours volunteering on patrol and at community events have greatly contributed to the well being of our City. At the beginning of 2015 a new Auxiliary Unit recruit class was trained. These 10 new recruits dedicated themselves 2 nights a week for 3 months and were trained in various aspects of Policing. Our newest members joined a Unit of dedicated volunteers who once again, in 2015, demonstrated their commitment not only to the Owen Sound Police Service but to the City of Owen Sound. The Auxiliary Unit continued to be involved in several community and educational events throughout the year. The Auxiliary Constables play a crucial role in facilitating the operation of many of our larger community events hosted by the Police Service, including: the Road Hockey for Radiology Tournament, the Cufflinks Golf Tournament and the Skatepark Jam. An annual highlight for the Auxiliary Unit is their Christmas Food Drive proved to be another successful year collecting 1,959 lbs of food and $3, in cash donations. All of these proceeds were given to the Salvation Army Food Bank. The Auxiliary Unit continues to participate in a number of community events including Keystone Family Fun Day, the Hottest Yard Sale, Canada Day, Salmon Derby, the Festival of Northern Lights and many more. Total time contributed by the Auxiliary Unit in 2015 was 2,410 hours. Auxiliary Ser- 30 Annual Report 2015

32 R.I.D.E. Program The Owen Sound Police Service utilizes a year-round proactive Reduce Impaired Driving Everywhere (R.I.D.E.) program. High profile and strategic R.I.D.E. checkpoints are conducted to provide education and enforcement aimed at combating impaired driving, in an effort to keep our community and roads safe for all. On-duty police officers conduct R.I.D.E. checks throughout the year as part of their regular duties, as well as provincially funded R.I.D.E. checks conducted during holiday times, major events and other strategic times, when drinking and driving deterrence and education is most beneficial. The Owen Sound Police Service has also teamed up with municipal police services and O.P.P. detachments in Grey and Bruce counties, to conduct joint forces R.I.D.E. spot checks, to enhance public safety at community events or to conduct a collaborate approach toward various challenges throughout our region. Officers utilize high visibility equipment to help increase the safety of officers and drivers approaching checkpoints. The updated technology of the Intoxilyzer 8000C provides enhanced portability and flexibility for use in mobile R.I.D.E. command posts and other off-site locations. 32 Annual Report 2015

34 Police Complaints Accountability and public confidence is the foundation upon which police services are able to effectively operate. Police officers are faced with many challenging situations and are governed by many legislative authorities and levels of oversight. At times members of the public may be unsure of a police officer s authority, may disagree or be dissatisfied with actions taken by police. In Ontario, the Police Services Act establishes a Code of Conduct in which police officers in Ontario are governed by. This Act also provides the process that enables a member of the public to register a complaint about an officer s conduct, the policies or services provided by a police service. The Office of the Independent Police Review Director (OIPRD) is responsible for the administration, oversight and review of police complaints and complaint investigations in Ontario. As an arms-length agency of the Ontario Ministry of the Attorney General, the OIPRD is staffed by civilians who are not members of any police service. The OIPRD is accountable to the Attorney General and their decisions are independent from the government, courts or police. In addition to the oversight of complaint investigations, the OIPRD have established informal procedures of resolving less serious complaints involving police, when the circumstances of the complaint are deemed suitable by the OIPRD. All parties involved in the complaint must be in agreement with the informal resolution. Members of the Owen Sound Police Services responded to nearly 15,000 calls for service in 2015, in addition to regular daily contact with residents and visitors of our community. Despite the volume of calls and public interaction, often under very challenging circumstances, there were only two public complaints submitted to the OIPRD in Both of those complaints were deemed by the OIPRD as being frivolous in nature and not being in the public interest to proceed. There were no outstanding 2015 complaint investigations carried into The low number of complaints is a testament to the Owen Sound Police Services commitment to professionalism and integrity. 34 Annual Report 2015

35 Torch Run for Special Olympics The Owen Sound Police Service supports the Ontario Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics, which is an integral force in supporting Special Olympics Ontario (SOO). SOO is a part of a dynamic worldwide charitable organization that is dedicated to promoting a more active and better quality of life for people who have intellectual disabilities, through their involvement in sports. The Ontario Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics is a very active organization and is enthusiastic in their approach to raise funds and awareness. Fundraising events include: The Polar Bear Dip, Pass the Hat with the Owen Sound Attack hockey organization, Torch Runs, Payroll deductions, NHL Alumni Game, Mall Tolls and the Cufflinks Golf Tournament. We are always trying to brainstorm new ideas to raise further funds for the cause. The Owen Sound Police Service would not be able to run a successful Torch Run program if not for the community that supports it, as well as all of the wonderful people that volunteer at the different events. Without the continued support and commitment of the community, and the men and women in Law Enforcement and Corrections, the continued success and growth of the Special Olympics programs in Ontario would not be what they are today. OHL Pass the Hat: In conjunction with the Ontario Hockey League (OHL), Law Enforcement Torch Run committees participate in a one night event in which law enforcement volunteers and athletes team up to pass the hat around the hockey rink. This is completed in the first period of the game and all volunteers are provided with a ticket to enjoy the rest of the hockey game. This event was held on the 3rd of March, 2015 which went over very well raising $3, We are always so pleased with the generosity of our community. Polar Bear Dip: The 16 th annual Polar Bear Dip was held on the 21st of March, A silent auction was held, as well as t-shirts and hotdog sales kept participants busy throughout the day. We had 44 people participate in the plunge and raised $12, for Special Olympics. Torch Runs: This years Torch Run was completed in partnership with the rest of our zone. A run was completed through the downtown core of our city. Starting at 11 th Ave East/2nd Ave East (National Grocers) the runners headed south on 2 nd Ave East to the corner of 2 nd Ave East/8 th St East (City Hall). The Torch Run took place on the 20th Annual Report

36 of May, 2015 in conjunction with the Bluewater District School Board s Summer Games Special Olympics Track & Field qualifier raising $ Payroll Deductions: The Payroll Deductions allow members of the Owen Sound Police Service to have deductions taken directly off of their pay cheques and sent directly to Special Olympics Ontario. With the generosity of our members we are able to raise $ yearly. All members that enroll in this program receive a Torch Run t- shirt each year. Cufflinks Golf Tournament: The annual Cufflinks Tournament is a cofundraiser for Special Olympics and the Owen Sound Police K.I.D.S program (formerly DARE). It was held at the Legacy Ridge Golf Course on the 18th of September, Teams are made up of law enforcement personnel, local golf club members, business owners and citizens of the community. This event successfully raised $12, which was split between the K.I.D.S. program and Special Olympics. NHL Alumni Game: This event is held every year in November and is organized by the NHL Alumni Tour, which is a third party fundraiser for the Law Enforcement Torch Run. They hold a series of approximately 30 games that take place all across Ontario each winter. This is an event that brings some of hockey s greatest heroes into arenas to play against members of the local law enforcement teams. All funds raised from this event are managed by the local Special Olympics representative to be distributed to local athletes. 36 Annual Report 2015

37 Police Week 2015 Police Week 2015 ran from May 10 th to May 16 th. The week was filled with a number of events celebrating the Owen Sound Police Service and our community.

Police Week kicked off with our Road Hockey for Radiology charity tournament. The event took place on Owen Sound s downtown main street. Various community groups entered teams. All proceeds from the tournament, which included a community barbeque, went to support the Grey Bruce Health Service s Radiology Project. The Owen Sound Police Service, in partnership with the Grey Bruce Health Unit, hosted a drug drop off day. This provided members of the community a convenient opportunity to dispose of any unused prescription medications to reduce risks of accidental or intentional misuse of prescription drugs. Grade 5 student, Brianna Biggins from Dufferin Public School was the winner of the 7th Annual Chief for a Day contest. Brianna s essay on the topic, as Chief of Police how she would convince kids to become interested in policing as a career, was selected from numerous entries from the grade 5 classes of all Owen Sound Annual Report

Appreciation from Ontario Provincial Police Dear Chief W. Sornberger On behalf of the Safe Communities Committee for the Town of South Bruce Peninsula, I would like to thank you for allowing members of your service to attend our community to present an interactive presentation of impaired and distracted driving.

Distracted driving is a primary focus of the Committee and the presentation was extremely well received, with several requests for return presentations to the students. A goal of the Committee is to develop the ability to continue focus on the growing issue of distracted driving and the impacts it has on a community. This is another example of the spirit of cooperation that exists between all police services within Grey and Bruce Counties. Your actions were appreciated. 44 Annual Report 2015
