Never experienced more rude, unprofessional police officers in my life.This department needs to SERIOUSLY reconsider their hiring standards. The officer I had my unpleasant encounter with was investigated in 2019 by the OH Attorney General’s office for excessive force when he was a Ranger in Newark - not a good look.Loudonville police are NOT like other officers I’ve encountered, and I’ve never had anything but pleasant experiences with police. I have the utmost respect for all men & women in uniform but, these guys are on a MAJOR power trip. They’ll arrest anyone for anything and blow your situation WAY out of proportion. They’ll treat you like a zoo animal after being called for a noise complaint, get in your face, scream at you for no reason, and use RIDICULOUS intimidation tactics.The only reason I’m giving two stars instead of one is because the Chief is very helpful. He emailed me personally when I requested records from his office and was extremely diligent with my request.
