Redding police respond to more than 7,000 calls and make 507 arrests in October

Redding police officers responded to more than 7,000 calls for service and made 507 arrests during October 2026, according to the Redding Police Department's monthly activity update.

The department released the figures as part of a look back at the work officers and civilian staff handled across the city last month, from answering calls to investigating cases and conducting proactive enforcement.

More than 7,000 calls in one month

The October summary shows the volume of requests for help that Redding police handle. Calls for service can include a wide range of situations, and the total does not mean every call involved a crime or resulted in an arrest.

RPD also highlighted continuing efforts to identify and stop impaired drivers. The department did not provide a separate DUI arrest total in the accompanying text supplied for this report.

What the numbers tell residents

The 507 arrests recorded in October reflect enforcement activity during the month, but the department's summary alone does not establish whether crime increased or decreased compared with previous months.

The department says its officers and staff continue responding to calls, investigating incidents and working on traffic safety throughout Redding.
