GRPD to focus on ‘most egregious’ noncompliance reports

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — The Grand Rapids Police Department is urging residents to use restraint when reporting complaints related to Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s stay-at-home order.

“We will do our best to address the most egregious instances of noncompliance (i.e. large house parties, open restaurants or mass gatherings). We simply do not have the capacity to answer all the other calls that come into our dispatch center related to lesser violations, while still maintaining service for true emergencies and other police related activities,” GRPD Sgt. John Wittkoswi said in a statement Wednesday.

Authorities are reminding people to use 911 only for emergencies.
