The Wichita Police Department's Investigations Division is comprised of four Bureaus; the Property Crimes Bureau, the Crimes Against Persons Bureau, the Special Investigations Bureau, and the Technical Services Bureau, which includes the Crime Lab Investigators (CSI).  Personnel in these bureaus are responsible for follow-up investigations of criminal cases.  They work closely with victims, witnesses, citizens, and other law enforcement agencies to solve problems and crimes. 

In February of 1999 the Investigations Division underwent a reorganization.  Five specialized sections were created in the Property Crimes Bureau consisting of Robbery/Simple Assault, Burglary, Auto Theft, Larceny, and Financial Crimes. 

A Gang/Felony Assault unit was created within the Crimes Against Persons Bureau to coordinate and investigate all gang related crimes. 

Through the utilization of crime analysis information supervisors and detectives identify crime trends and develop crime reduction strategies for specific neighborhoods and on a city wide scale.
