Coon Rapids Police Release November 2025 Monthly Service Call Recap

Coon Rapids, MN - The Coon Rapids Police Department has released its monthly recap for November 2025, offering residents a detailed overview of public safety activity and the range of service calls handled by officers throughout the city.

According to data provided by the department, officers responded to 4,017 calls for service during November, representing a decrease of 326 calls compared to October 2025. Police officials note that monthly fluctuations in call volume are common and can be influenced by seasonal patterns, weather conditions, and community activity levels.

The department emphasized that the figures reflect call types as they were known at the time of dispatch and are shared for public awareness. Call classifications may change once officers arrive on scene and complete their investigation.

Top Calls for Service in November

The most frequent categories of service calls handled by the Coon Rapids Police Department during the month included:

• Traffic stops: 948
  Traffic enforcement remained a significant focus, reflecting ongoing efforts to promote roadway safety and reduce crashes, particularly as winter driving conditions begin to emerge.
• Medical calls: 467
  Medical related calls were the second most common category, highlighting the department’s role as a frequent first responder alongside fire and emergency medical services for health and welfare related incidents.
• Domestic calls: 222
  These calls involved domestic disturbances or violence related incidents, underscoring the continued need for crisis intervention, victim support, and coordinated response with social services.
• Suspicious person calls: 159
  These reports often involve proactive community vigilance and officer investigations intended to prevent potential criminal activity or ensure public safety.
• Property damage calls: 151
  This category includes incidents involving damage to public or private property, frequently connected to vehicle crashes or vandalism.

Broader Public Safety Context

The November data reflects a broader trend seen in suburban policing, where a substantial share of police work involves non criminal and service oriented responses. Medical assistance, traffic safety, and welfare checks continue to account for a large portion of officer activity, reinforcing the department’s role beyond traditional law enforcement.

While the overall decline in calls from October to November is consistent with typical seasonal variation, regional public safety data shows that November can also bring heightened risks related to early snowfall and the start of the holiday season. These conditions often contribute to increases in traffic incidents and impaired driving concerns, underscoring the importance of traffic enforcement efforts during this period.

Community Engagement and Support Services

The Coon Rapids Police Department continues to emphasize community engagement and collaborative public safety initiatives. During November, officers participated in preparations for the annual Season of Giving Holiday Drive, hosted in partnership with the Coon Rapids Fire Department, which supports local families and residents in need.

The department also continues its use of an embedded social worker model, designed to assist residents facing complex challenges such as mental health crises, substance use issues, and housing insecurity. This approach allows officers to connect individuals with appropriate resources while reducing repeat calls for service.

Transparency and Public Awareness

Police officials say the monthly recap is intended to promote transparency and keep residents informed about the scope and nature of police work in Coon Rapids. By sharing service call data, the department aims to foster understanding, accountability, and community trust.

Residents are encouraged to report emergencies by calling 911 and to use non emergency reporting options for lower priority concerns. Additional public safety updates and resources are available through the City of Coon Rapids and Coon Rapids Police Department official communication channels.
