Huge thanks to @IrvinePolice, @LAPDHQ, @SJSheriff, @Atlanta_Police, @ga_dps, @CobbPoliceDept, @SFDAOffice, DA @BrookeJenkinsSF, and our very own SFPD members for their efforts in this investigation.

Outstanding work.
Close partnerships with our retailers are leading to more arrests and fewer theft cases this year. Between Apr. and Sep., we've made 874 retail theft arrests - a 22% increase compared to the previous 6 months.
WATCH: Officers with the SFPD's Organized Retail Crime (ORC) Task Force arrested 5 suspects in Sep. responsible for $19,000 worth of merchandise from an REI store.

This recent work from our officers and partner law enforcement agencies sends a strong message: San Francisco will not tolerate anyone selling or using drugs in our city.
Thank you to our hard-working officers and public safety partners helping us continue this vital work.
Today, @SFPDChiefLew joined Mayor @DanielLurie and public safety partners to announce a recent crackdown on drug markets, resulting in multiple arrests and the seizure of drugs and firearms.
We're working together to dismantle drug-related activity and keep San Francisco safe.
Thank you to everyone who came out for National Night Out! We had a great time meeting community members and talking to residents about how we keep San Francisco safe.
We're proud to host National Night Out. As an SFPD tradition, every district station will be hosting its own events. We hope everyone has a safe and fun evening!

San Francisco showed up. 🌈
Thank you for another incredible Pride weekend! We were proud to celebrate with you and help keep our city safe for everyone.
Happy Pride, San Francisco!
I was honored to celebrate alongside you. Thank you Mayor @DanielLurie, @SFFDPIO Chief Crispen, DA @BrookeJenkinsSF, and @SheriffSF Paul Miyamoto for joining me today!
We're ready, San Francisco.

Human trafficking of any kind will never be tolerated in San Francisco.
I want to thank all of our officers along with members of our Special Victims Unit for their diligent work on these investigations.
