Q. Where is the Ashfield police station? What are

Q. When should I call 911?
Q. Who should I call about a loose or problem
dog, or a problem animal such as a sick raccoon or dead bird? A. You should call Warren Kirkpatrick, the
Ashfield Animal Control Officer, at (413) 628-3811.
Q. How do I get a License to Carry Firearms (LTC)
or Firearms Identification (FID)? Where do I find information about
Massachusetts gun control laws? A. Please read the
Firearms FAQ
page.
Q. Can the police department check my home or
business while I am away on vacation? A. Yes. This is a special service provided by
your police department. Please fill out our form and drop it off at the police station before you leave.
Officers on patrol will randomly check on the security of your home while you
are away.
Q. If on returning home I find my door open,
should I go inside? A. NEVER go into a building where you suspect a robbery may be in progress. Go to a neighbor’s house and call the police. If you arrive home and find a broken window, an alarm sounding, or another indication of a break-in, DO NOT GO IN. You do not want to encounter an intruder, or damage any evidence such as fingerprints or footprints.
