Operation ID

Operation ID is a part of Montana Crime Watch. Operation ID has two parts. First, you mark all your easily stolen valuables so they can be identified as yours. Second, you display a sticker or poster which tells burglars that you have done so. To mark your property for Operation ID, you will need an engraving tool. If you do not have access to one, you may borrow a tool from the Law Enforcement Center. After you mark your property, your ID number will be kept on file and you will be provided with stickers declaring that your property is protected.

Big Muddy River Drug Task Force

The Sidney Police Department, Richland County Sheriff's Office, and Fairview Police Department are members of the Big Muddy River Drug Task Force and actively participate with law enforcement agencies in the surrounding cities and counties in a coordinated effort to battle drug trafficking and use in eastern Montana. If you have information on suspected drug activity, please contact your local law enforcement agency. Information regarding the fight against methamphetamine is provided by the Montana Meth Project.
If you will be away from home for an extended period of time, please call or stop by the Law Enforcement Center. Your information will be recorded and regular patrol officers on duty will be advised to provide extra patrol of your home while you are away.
The Sidney Police Department will provide public talks covering a wide range of topics such as drugs, traffic, criminal justice, baby-sitting, Kid Care ID, etc. All requests for officers to speak publicly should be directed to the Chief of Police at 406-433-2210 or by writing him at:
Sidney Police Department
110 Second Avenue NW
Sidney, MT 59270.

Red Ribbon Week

Each October, we support the schools of Richland County in celebrating Red Ribbon Week to further our commitment to a drug-free community. Red Ribbon Week originated after D.E.A. Agent Enrique Camarena was murdered by drug traffickers while on duty in Mexico in 1985. As a result of his death, Red Ribbon Week was initiated to honor his sacrifice and to encourage others to take a stand against drugs. In the past, officers have handed out red ribbons to students and given talks encouraging them to stay drug free. Access the following information if you are looking for ideas or supplies to celebrate Red Ribbon Week:
  • Bureau for At Risk Youth
  • Red Ribbon Resources

Crime Prevention

Bicycle Licensing

The Sidney Police Department encourages all bicycles to be licensed. To license a bicycle, take it to City Hall at 115 Second Street S.E. (next to the Fire Hall) and pay a one-time licensing fee of $2. The license will help deter theft, but should your bicycle be stolen, there will be a record of its description and serial number on file to aid in recovery.
