Grand Junction Fire Department Investigations

The Grand Junction Fire Department investigates all fires that occur in the City of Grand Junction or the Grand Junction Rural Fire Protection District. The purpose of the investigation is to determine the fire origin and cause.


The process is managed by an Investigations Coordinator who collects and maintains information regarding all fire investigations. In addition, there are nine shift personnel who have collateral investigation responsibilities that are assigned to 24-hour shifts. The Investigations office has personnel who are certified as Colorado Peace Officer and have the ability and authority to conduct criminal investigations. This certification and law enforcement training is necessary for the investigation of fires that are determined to be intentional in nature. Investigators work cases from the initial on-scene investigation through the arrest and prosecution phase, when appropriate.


The program coordinates and investigates between 500 and 600 fires annually. The Grand Junction Fire Department is committed to investigating all fires in an effort to make Grand Junction a safer community. The department is very interested in receiving any information the public may have which would assist in the investigation of fires or related criminal acts.

Information related to any investigation or criminal act can be reported by contacting one of the following:
