Statistics
A Note From the Chief...
The City of Fortuna historically, has enjoyed a California Crime Index,
which is about one half of what the state average tends to be. This means
that there is less major crime in Fortuna.
Certainly credit goes to our professional and
dedicated police staff (of which I am proud of), but also to the "sense of
community" constantly displayed by our Fortuna Citizens. Our citizens
recognize what a wonderful community they have in Fortuna and as such take
responsibility to maintain our enviable quality of life. People watch out
for one another and will not hesitate to report suspicious activity to the
police.
Additionally, we have many volunteers who donate their
talents to a variety of Community/Police Volunteer Programs, Public safety
is everyone's responsibility. Working together we are making a difference
in Fortuna.
Sincerely,
Kris Kitna
Chief of Police
