History
The APD started as a single appointed bailiff with the incorporation of the town charter in 1892. The law enforcement remained a one-man job until the 1940s when the complement of officers was increased to a total of three sworn. In 1965 when the APD chief of police Ben Ray (initially appointed as the town Bailiff, serving from 1919–1965) retired, the complement was up to 16 sworn officers. The agency has expanded in personnel and duties and now includes a comprehensive force of approximately 40 police officers, detectives, K-9, and other special operations and support staff.[2]
Organization
The current Chief of Police is Henry Trabert. The APD contains a joint narcotics task force, K-9, SWAT team, Accident Reconstruction Team, and an Evidence Collection Unit (CSI).
