Criminal Investigations (CID)
The Criminal Investigations Division (CID) is responsible for the follow-up investigations of misdemeanor and felony complaints. The division has two main components, narcotics and Investigations, and is supervised by a Sergeant and a Lieutenant.
Typically when an offense has been reported to the Police Department, it is forwarded to the Criminal Investigations Division Sergeant for review. Cases are assigned by the Sergeant to one of the Detectives for follow-up. The Detective will then contact the complainant, as soon as he/she is able, for any follow up information.

If you have narcotics related information or questions, you may contact the Narcotics Section at 512-670-5573 or email
Sgt. Daryl Staha.
Investigations
The Investigations Section is composed of one Sergeant and six (6) Corporal – Detectives who are assigned cases for follow-up of leads. These leads may identify persons responsible for committing crimes in the City of Pflugerville.
These investigators have received training in specialized crimes such as:
- homicide
- child abuse
- sexual assault
- computer/internet crimes
The Investigation Section is responsible for many different aspects of investigative operations such as:
- Clearing as many cases as possible
- Interviewing witnesses
- Interrogating suspects
- Recovering stolen property
- Preparing cases for the prosecutor
- Processing major scenes such as sex crimes and computer crimes.
- Collecting and preserving evidence found at crime scenes.
All patrol officers are trained in evidence recovery, but the Investigations section is specially trained to look for fingerprints, tool marks, and trace evidence. They photograph and diagram scenes. This is a very tedious job, which at times can mean the difference between an unsolved crime and a perpetrator imprisoned.
