Current Information
Official safety alerts and public notices for 2026. This desk watches the official Windsor Police, LaSalle Police and OPP West Region accounts, which together cover Windsor, Amherstburg, LaSalle, and Essex County OPP communities including Belle River in the Town of Lakeshore. This page lists the official sources and the 2026 items checked by the desk. It does not backfill alerts from older years.
If you are in danger, call 911. Alerts on this page are information, not a dispatch service.
Official sources this desk watches
Current official 2026 alerts from those sources will be listed here with a date and a link. We do not invent a live feed.
2026 public notices checked by the desk
A local anonymous tip program pause
A local anonymous police tip program said on 28 October 2026 that it had temporarily paused acceptance of any new tips, after a cybersecurity incident involving a vendor. Police in the area also paused their usual promotion of that tip line. As of 10 November 2026, this desk has not seen an official notice that the local program has resumed. Do not treat 1-800-222-TIPS or the paused local tip website as a working anonymous option for Windsor-Essex until the official program says it has resumed.
Sources: Official notice, 28 October 2026; Windsor Police Service update, 22 October 2026; LaSalle Police Service notice dated 23 October 2026 on the town's police news page.
A running 2026 alert board from @WindsorPolice and @OPP_WR is not yet published for 2026 on this page yet. Items will be added only from those official accounts or from official police newsroom pages, with the date of the post. Older-year alerts will not be used to fill the board.
