Quartzsite Police Chief Jeff Gilbert announced Tuesday that the Quartzsite Police are still investigating the death of Laura Vittori, the local woman found slain in a field behind the Exxon station at Exit 19 in Quartzsite.

"The FBI," Gilbert stated, "is still involved in this case and we are working on it. We do not believe there is a danger to the public," Gilbert concluded.


Your local police department is working to make Quartzsite a better place. Take the time to note officers' names and be respectful of their needs in any emergency situation: they're there to protect you.

Quartzsite's Local Police Department is located at 465 North Plymouth Avenue in Quartzsite, with a mailing address of Post Office Box 2812. Telephone: 928-927-4644 Fax: 938-937-4400

Quartzsite is technically a 'small town' despite the masses of tourists that find it a wonderful alternative to wintry weather in the north. It isn't geared for high maintenance camera systems and 'pay by mail' ticketing agents: it relies on a common sensical approach to driving locally:

1. Watch for animals, bicycles, ATVs, pedestrians and confused drivers. We cater to seniors, retirees and outdoor enthusiasts of all ages. There are virtually all modes of transportation operating on our streets at this time of year. Drive slowly when approaching others. They are likely new to the area.

2. Traffic congestion in Quartzsite is commonplace. Attempting to get anywhere quickly is not an option. Slow down and take your time, enjoy the opportunity to look around while sitting in traffic.

3. The Quartzsite Postal Service is  inundated. Being short with postal workers will not alleviate the problem: take something to read or work on when standing in line.  The Chamber of Commerce is working on getting a seasonal postal service operational in Quartzsite: in the meantime, be supportive of the staff working to handle too much seasonal mail with too few workers.
