About Us

The Steele Creek Division comprises 60.6 square miles in the southwest section of Mecklenburg County.  In addition to numerous residential, commercial and industrial areas, Steele Creek Division also borders a large section of Lake Wylie.

There are 85 Officers, 8 Sergeants, 1 Investigative Technician and a Captain assigned to the division. Our office is located in the former Police-Fire Training Academy at 1750 Shopton Road, adjacent to the new Charlotte Police & Fire Training Academy.

The division is divided into four response areas and operates three standard work shifts with two additional overlapping shifts.  The majority of officers are assigned to these shifts, although the division also operates squads of Problem Solving Officers, Lake Patrol, and Community Coordinators.  For more information about division personnel, points of contact and special units and projects, please view the additional information about the division.
