Trinidad Police Logged 36 Calls, Neighborhoods Experience Range of Incidents

Trinidad police logged 36 separate calls to dispatch on November 25, 2025, covering everything from extra patrol requests to traffic stops and animal control responses. No single event rose to the level of a major crime in the blotter, but the entries paint a picture of everyday public safety duties and community concerns across neighborhoods.

Throughout the day and evening officers conducted extra patrols in Allendale and downtown, and responded to several alarm calls at locations including 718 East Second Street, Sonic, and 1309 Beshoar. Traffic enforcement produced multiple verbal warnings at locations such as Purgatory and Animas, North Commercial and Maple, and one citation issued in the 1100 block of Arizona. Officers also ran a license plate check in the Trinidad area.

Animal control handled multiple calls. Two cats were taken to the shelter from 117 South Burlington, and several animals were transported to the landfill from addresses including 1615 East Main, 218 East North Avenue, and Chestnut. A report of a person hitting a dog at 457 West Main Street listed the suspect as gone before officers arrived.

Public safety crews extinguished a small weed fire at the dog park, and emergency services transported a person to the hospital from the 1600 block of Nevada Avenue after a reported reaction to mushrooms. There were several reports of harassment by phone or social media at addresses including 803 South Maple, 3125 Toupal Drive, and 219 South Convent Street. Officers also handled transient related checks, suspicious persons and loitering calls, and a civil stand by to recover property at 1201 Obregon.

The Trinidad Police Department follows state open records rules that limit release of personally identifying information for juveniles, sexual assault victims, and medical calls. Colorado law sections 24 72 302 subsection 2 and 24 72 204 subsection VII define what details may be withheld. That means many entries are summarized without names or descriptions.

Residents should take basic precautions such as securing property, reporting animal cruelty, and keeping emergency contacts current. The blotter demonstrates routine patrols and responsiveness, and serves as a reminder that small incidents can affect neighborhood safety and quality of life.
