After a drive-by shooting on Stafford Road on Saturday, police said Tiverton needs more resources to combat rising violent crime trends.
Violent crimes in Tiverton are on the rise - and have been over the past 10 years. But despite increases in population and crimes against persons in the last decade, the Tiverton Police Department has not received increases in staffing. Tiverton has the second highest number of crimes - after Newport - in the county, according to an annual State Police statistics report, yet it operates with a police force that does not meet minimum federal staffing requirements.

Tiverton has 27 officers. "Currently our staffing is low, but with the …
