In brief
Springfield Township Police Department - Union County is listed as a municipal police agency in Union County. The Attorney General's internal affairs reports do not list a sworn officer count or investigation totals for this entry, so its size, recent caseload and sustained-complaint detail are not reported.
Two major discipline records appear in the 2020-2025 releases, in 2023 and 2025, neither of them a termination. Because the entry has no peer group and its officer count is not reported, the site does not grade it, and no report-card standing is assigned.
