Fredericton Police is the police force for the City of Fredericton, New Brunswick.

History

Fredericton Police was created on June 27, 1851. One Police Officer was hired (unpaid) to patrol wards. Their first unofficial Chief of Police was Sgt. Paul Phillips. City Council never allowed him to utilize the name "Chief of Police." The first official Chief of Police was George Winter (September 1908) and retained the position for only 8 months.

In 1883, the Fredericton Police relocated its headquarters in what is now the City of Fredericton's City Hall and remained there till 1971. Again, the Fredericton Police relocated its office in 1971 to York Street which shared the building with the Fredericton Fire Department. Since 1983, the Fredericton Police Force is located at 311 Queen Street in downtown Fredericton.

In 1973, the Fredericton Police hired its first female police officer, Shirley Jollimore.
