Meet Officer Gonzales who plays the accordion. He met a group on Fiesta Island who’s bonfire was large&unsafe. He saw an accordion and asked to play a song. After the song, he asked them to control the fire a little better. And they happily agreed. Have you ever seen an officer play the accordion? #accordion #police #music #band #VenmoSpringBreak #AerieREAL #community
Have you ever wondered what it's like to spend a day with us at the San Diego Police Department? Well, let us take you through our incredible day with @SDSWAC at the annual Shop With a Cop event!
We joined hands with over 300 federal, state, local, and tribal officers from all over San Diego county for the Shop With a Cop event, creating lasting memories with 300 wonderful third graders.
Our adventure began with the thrilling sound of police sirens as we escorted 300 enthusiastic third graders on a lively police car ride to @SeaWorldSanDiego. Followed by a delightful breakfast where the kids learned they'd each receive four tickets to return with their families.
The joy on everyone's faces was witnessing our very own #SoutheasternDivision Sergeant Thomas, a skilled dolphin trainer, run out on stage to lead a captivating show in his one-of-a-kind SDPD wetsuit.
Our day ended with a shopping spree at @Target, echoing with laughter and joy. It's days like these that strengthen our bond with the community and fill our hearts. #SDPDCommunity #ShopWithACop #SDPD #OneTeamOneMission

Sunshine and smiles graced the 135th Regional Academy's Pride Run today. As our recruits and loved ones jogged along the San Diego Bay, they shared one last stride as academy mates. This run symbolizes so much more than a physical challenge—it's a celebration of the enduring bonds they've built and their shared commitment.
Led by officers of our motors unit, guided on the waves by our harbor units, and cheered on by the watchful eyes of ABLE overhead, they didn't just run; they embodied the very essence of solidarity that defines the #SDPD family.
Tomorrow, as they don their badges and set out to patrol with their respective law enforcement agencies across our county, they carry with them more than just the lessons learned; they carry a sense of belonging, a spirit of collaboration, and a promise of unwavering support for one another.
Today, they ran together, but every day hereafter, they'll serve together—different streets, same passion. Their paths may diverge, but the unity they've forged is as vast and interconnected as the communities we are sworn to protect.
We salute the 135th Regional Academy for their dedication and esprit de corps. As they transition from recruits to officers tomorrow, we know that the ties that bind them will only strengthen in the line of duty.

Working to keep the thousands of you safe, we zip through Gaslamp faster than you can say ‘Back to the Future.’ No DeLorean needed when you’ve got bikes and beats from the classic 1983 hit!
And while we’re not calling anyone a ‘Maniac,’ we’re definitely dancing through the crowd (metaphorically speaking!).
Stay safe, San Diego, and keep the good times rolling! 🌴 #SDPD #CentralDivision #BikeTeam #GaslampFun #SanDiegoLife #NightPatrol #CycleSquad #FlashbackFriday #80sSoundtrack #TimelessTunes #CommunitySpirit #SanDiegoNights #PartySafe #SDPDStrong #BikeBeat

Despite a touch of drizzle, the spirit of San Diego shone brightly at Skate Jam 2023! Thanks to everyone who rolled down and added to the energy, making it a massive success. 🌦️🌈
Highlights of the day:
🔹 Electrifying 4-person relay races that had everyone on the edge of their seats! All the teams finished within 10 seconds of each other!
🔹 Our SWAT team not only stood tall in uniform but also showcased their rad skateboard skills!
🔹 The MOD K9s & Ariel Remote Operations (ARO) Unit, wowing the crowd with their demonstrations and drone flights.
🔹 Over 400 hotdogs 🌭 courtesy of 7/11 were gobbled up!
🔹 Raffle winners decked out with custom SDPD skateboards by G&S, bicycles, and helmets. Wheel-y cool stuff!
"Mom, it was never just a phase; it was a lifestyle!" 🤘 Skate Jam isn’t just a ride in the park. It’s a carve into deeper community connections. Our officers, once detached from skate culture, are now pushing forward as mentors, steering our youth safely down skateboarding's winding road.
Big wheelie... erm, a really big shout-out to our gnarly community partners who helped us keep the momentum going! 🤝❤️
Special Thanks To:
🔸 7-11: For the scrumptious hotdogs!
🔸 Starbucks Coffee: For keeping our spirits caffeinated and high!
🔸 La Costa Racing Team: For bringing the race spirit!
🔸 Status Skateshop: For the endless support!
🔸 G&S: The magicians behind our limited edition skateboards!
🔸 Target: For always hitting the mark!
🔸 Scripps Health: For ensuring our wellbeing!
🔸 City of San Diego Parks and Recreation Department: For the space and all the help!
Skateboarding is not just a sport. It's a language that brings communities closer. Let's keep the ride going! Until next year! 🛹❤️🙌

San Diego, with its stunning beaches and sunny atmosphere, is a prime spot for day activities. However, day drinking under the sun can quickly lead to dehydration and impaired judgment.
Recently, at Fiesta Island a driver, three times over the legal alcohol limit, crashed into three parked vehicles. Thankfully, no one was injured. If the parked cars were not there, the situation could have taken a dire turn if the car had plunged into Mission Bay.
As San Diegans enjoying our beautiful city, let's prioritize safety: always monitor your alcohol intake and consider alternative transport options after drinking. Encourage fellow San Diegans to do the same. Together, we can ensure our city remains both fun and safe. Drink responsibly. #DUI #DriveSober #FiestaIsland #MissionBay #SDPD #SanDiegoPD #SanDiego

The finish line at Mission Bay today wasn’t just the end of a run; it was the culmination of months of perseverance, learning, and growth. As the sun gleamed down on our 134th Regional Academy recruits, we saw not just runners but future protectors of our great city. Tomorrow, they'll don the badge and join the SDPD family. Cheers to a journey well-traveled! 🏃♂️🏃♀️ #FromRecruitsToOfficers #SDPD #JoinSDPDNow #SanDiegoPD #OneTeamOneMission #missionbay #hiring #sandiego #running #runwithme
Meet SDPD's finest Canine Handlers and their furry partners. Our officers work diligently and are passionate about what they do! They pour countless hours of training with their four-legged partners on a regular basis. During scenario-based training, the officer and his K9 are exposed to loud sounds, different scents, lighting conditions, weather and in this case different environmental conditions, such as swimming in the ocean! Scenarios can range from deployment strategies, detecting narcotics or explosives, de-escalation techniques, contacting a barricaded suspect, high-risk traffic stops, assisting with patrol operations, and much more! The life of a K9 handler and his pup can be very exciting and rewarding. Do you have what it takes to become a K9 officer? Here are the following minimum qualifications:
Minimum of 3 years of SDPD experience
Physically fit
Performance test including but not limited to
the ability to lift 70 lbs.
Participate in a 10-week basic handler course
The Canine Unit works the 4/10 schedule, receive an enhanced yearly uniform allowance, and unit pay.
Come join our team!

There's a reassuring feeling in knowing that even in the darkest hours, SDPD's ABLE is soaring high, watching over our beloved community. When the call comes in and you hear "ABLE, we're airborne and enroute," it's not just a status update; it’s a promise.
Equipped with advanced FLIR cameras, ABLE doesn’t just rely on visible light. It picks up the heat signatures of individuals, even if they're concealed in the shadows or foliage, ensuring that no one can elude our vigilant gaze. #SDPD #SanDiegoPD #SanDiego #ABLEInTheSky #GuardianFromAbove #FLIRVision
