I had the opportunity to sit down with Mayor Bass and LAPD Captain Ponce and hear from business owners and community members of Koreatown.

We heard their concerns, suggestions, and ideas, and reinforced that the LAPD will not only provide feedback, but will provide solutions.

Amidst a national and local police hiring and retention crisis, we’re attracting a record number of applicants to the police academy.

We are sending a signal to our current officers and our community partners that we support them – that public safety is a priority for this

We are working to PREVENT crime and INTERRUPT the cycle of violence.

From LAPD Central Division

Central Division Narcotics Enforcement Detail continues their campaign against dangerous street drugs and guns. These items were recovered from a local Downtown LA dealer at 7th St and Figueroa.

Great work by LAPD Newton Gang Enforcement Officers. In one week they arrested 11 suspects who were armed with 13 guns, including this one during a traffic stop. Taking these guns off the wrong hands and off the streets makes a difference in public safety.

To all Angelenos celebrating today, happy Easter!

Tonight, NYPD Officer Jonathan Diller, a husband and a father, was shot and killed during a vehicle stop. Officer Diller lost his life doing his job—protecting and serving his community.

Our prayers are with his loved ones and the entire NYPD.

Tonight, New York lost a hero.

I was humbled by the warm reception tonight at the Consulate General of the Republic of Korea. Seeing community members, elected officials, and fellow law enforcement officers coming together made me proud to be a part of the best city in the country. Thank you all!

Everyday I am amazed by the heart of our LAPD Officers. Thank you Sergeant Balgemino, and thank you to all LAPD employees, for your dedication and your compassion. We can all make a positive change in this world, especially if you @JoinLAPD. nbcnews.com/now/video/15-y…
