If you are a police officer applicant with the Fuquay-Varina Police Department, we invite you to participate in a patrol ride-along to experience a behind-the-scenes look at the FVPD. You have an opportunity to ride with an FVPD officer during the officer's shift to experience a view of our community, our equipment, our employees, and the general types of calls received. The ride-along is for a maximum of 4 hours and advanced notice is required in order to complete liability waivers and other required paperwork.
To schedule a ride-along, contact Lieutenant Scottie Hinton at dhinton@fuquay-varina.org or call 919-753-1009, or Corporal Megan Doxsie at mdoxsie@fuquay-varina.org or call 919-567-3906.
You must have submitted an application for the position of a police officer to be eligible for the police applicant ride-along program, however, there are other opportunities to participate in the ride-along program through the Citizen's Police Academy, Jr. Police Cadet Program, and other programs. Contact Captain Gathman to learn more information about these programs at cgathman@fuquay-varina.org or call 919-552-1434.
