We, the members of the New Sewickley Township Police Department, envision the New Sewickley Police Department as the benchmark of professionalism and leadership, not only in Beaver County, but also throughout Pennsylvania. By taking an aggressive stance against criminal activity, and by using traditional and progressive means of performing our duties, we assist in creating a safer, more productive township. Through working together with citizens and businesses, we contribute to the economic development of New Sewickley Township and help to make it a truly vibrant community.
Welcome to the New Sewickley Township Police Department web pages. My name is Gregory Carney, and I have worked for the New Sewickley Township Police Department since 2002. I was promoted to Chief of Police in February 2023. During my career with New Sewickley Township, I have served as a Patrolman, Detective, Corporal, and PLEAC Accreditation Manager. I have also spent time assigned to the Beaver County District Attorney’s Office Drug Task Force, the Pennsylvania Attorney General Bureau of Narcotics Task Force, and the Ohio High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area Task Force.
New Sewickley Township is a vibrant and growing community. Our officers are dedicated to reducing crime, enhancing the quality of life of our residents through their professional response to issues that arise in the community, while also building meaningful relationships with our residents and business owners. To this end, our officer’s endeavor to provide ethical police services that serve to amplify our positive relationship with our community. Our officers are encouraged to focus on continued training and professional development so that we may better serve our community.
The New Sewickley Township Police Department has several specialized units including a full time Detective, an officer assigned to the Beaver County District Attorney’s Drug Task Force, two School Resource Officers assigned to the Freedom Area School District, two specially trained officers assigned to the Beaver County Emergency Services Unit (ESU/SWAT) and a specially trained officer assigned to the Beaver County Behavioral Health Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) Team. These specially trained officers bring their experience and training back to our community so that we may all better serve our residents.
In 2024, our Community Engagement Team was formed. In the summer of 2024, we began working closely with Beaver County Juvenile Services, Beaver County Children and Youth Services, and Ready Yourself Youth Ranch so that our officers could mentor at risk youth in a non-law enforcement setting. We are excited to continue this collaboration in the foreseeable future! Our Community Engagement Team also offers active threat and ALICE training to faith-based organizations and businesses located in New Sewickley Township.
Our website is designed to provide insight into the services our department offers as well as the opportunities and education our officers provide to the community. I encourage you to explore our webpages to gain a better understanding of what the New Sewickley Township Police Department does and who our officers are. I also encourage you to reach out to me with any questions or concerns you may have.
Learn about law enforcement accreditation and why it matters. Accreditation means your local Police Department is run with the highest professional standards resulting in better public relations and interactions. It means we are accountable.
