Chief Dino Sgambellone
LAPD News:
Today, Police Chief Dino Sgambellone released crime statistics through the third quarter of 2023, which were compiled by the Records Section of the Los Alamos Police Department.
During the third quarter of 2023, there were decreases in Simple Assault and Larceny. At the same time there was an increase in Aggravated Assault and Fraud. These crimes, and crime in general, are affected by multiple factors. Los Alamos remains comparatively very safe, and citizens are reminded to report suspicious activity to the department.
While many factors can contribute to crime rates within a community, the Los Alamos Police Department would like to recognize and thank our community partners for sustaining a high quality of life by contributing to our low crime rate through the combined efforts of enforcement, education, prevention, and treatment.
The Los Alamos Police Department appreciates the community’s involvement in maintaining an exceptionally low crime rate and high quality of life. The Police Department remains committed to being an effective partner with our citizens and business owners. For more information on crime prevention, call Cmdr. Preston Ballew at 505.662.8236.
