Trunk or Treat 2025 – “A Christmas Story” Edition!

The Village of Franklinville Police Department had an amazing time at this year’s Trunk or Treat! Chief Cintron and Sgt. Heineman handed out Halloween Safety Kits and plenty of candy to hundreds of trick-or-treaters who stopped by our “A Christmas Story” themed trunk!

We’re excited to share that we placed in the Top 3!
​
It was a beautiful day filled with fun, creative costumes, laughter, and community spirit.
A huge shoutout to the Village of Franklinville Events Committee for organizing such a fantastic and successful event, and an even bigger thank you to everyone who came out and made the day so special! Your support and smiles truly make these community events what they are.
We’re already looking forward to next year!

Bike Rodeo 2025 – Community in Action!

8/19/2025

 
Yesterday, August 18th, the Village of Franklinville Police Department was proud to join the Blount Library for the annual Bike Rodeo at Franklinville Elementary School! From 10 AM – 12 PM, kids had the chance to practice bicycle safety, ride through fun courses, and learn important skills to keep them safe on the road.
A huge thank-you goes out to Jessie Frank of the Blount Library for organizing this wonderful event, and to all our community partners who helped make it such a success:

Cattaraugus County Sheriff’s Office SRO Miller – providing ID cards for children
Cattaraugus County Department of Health – sharing health and safety resources
Community Bank – supporting local families

We’re also proud to share that Chief Cintron and SRO Sgt. Heineman were on hand to represent the Franklinville Police Department and connect with our community.

Events like this show what happens when neighbors, schools, organizations, and law enforcement come together for our youth. Thank you to everyone who attended — we look forward to seeing you at next year’s rodeo!

Check out some highlights from the event below!

Congratulations Sergeant Heineman!

Congratulations, Sgt. Heineman!
The Franklinville Police Department is proud to announce the promotion of Patrolman Heineman to the rank of Sergeant! Sgt. Heineman has been a dedicated member of FPD since 2010, when he began his career as a patrolman.

Now, in February 2025, we are thrilled to see him take the next step in his career as Sergeant. He will continue his role as School Resource Officer while taking on additional responsibilities as a Patrol Supervisor. His dedication, leadership, and commitment to service make him a valuable asset to our department and the community.

Please join us in congratulating Sgt. Heineman on this well-earned promotion! We look forward to seeing him continue to grow and excel in his new role. Pictured below is SRO Holden Heineman and Chief of Police Robert Cintron.
