Election Sign Reminder

The Peterborough Police Service is reminding residents to respect election signs during the municipal election campaign. 

Moving, defacing, and/or stealing election signs could be theft or mischief.  An investigation could lead to charges.

Candidates or their third-party advertisers are encouraged to report any incidents involving vandalism of campaign signs or campaign materials to the police service of their jurisdiction.

If it is an emergency call 9-1-1.  For other situations, a call to the non-emergency line may be appropriate or online reporting where pictures and videos can easily be uploaded.   The online reporting portal can be accessed through the following link: https://www.peterboroughpolice.ca/online-reporting-portal/
