Sheriff's Corporate

Central Station was established in 1890 and is the longest standing patrol division within the Sheriff’s Department. The base of operation is out of the headquarters building and provides law enforcement services to the unincorporated areas of the central valley including; Arrowhead Farms, Colton, Devore, Muscoy and Glen Helen Amphitheater. In addition, Central Station is responsible for contract law enforcement in the cities of Grand Terrace and Loma Linda, as well as the San Manuel Indian Reservation and Casino.

Central Station continues to incorporate community-policing concepts in our enforcement operation. The approach has proven effective in detecting gang and criminal activity, and significantly impacting problems in the area. By working together with the citizens of our communities, Central Station deputies can provide more effective law enforcement and a higher quality of life.
