Leeds Alabama Police Department
Public Service Announcement: The Leeds Police Department will never call you to inform you of an outstanding warrant and demand payment. If you receive a phone call where an "Officer" is asking for payment due to an outstanding warrant, please end the phone call immediately. It is a scam. This also applies to a similar phone call involving Jury Duty. We are working with our federal partners to address these phone calls. If you are the recipient of one of these phone calls, please report it to the Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) at ic3.gov.
