Prior to the last 9 years, the last time we had fewer than 3 Homicides was in 1967 (281). 187 (72%) were committed outside 189 (73%) were committed with a gun 145 (56%) were Gang-Related.

(Where there was a described suspect) 22 (8%) were Domestic Violence-Related. 13 (5%) were as a result of a murder/suicide.

3 END OF YEAR 218 GANG CRIME Throughout 218, we remained committed to reducing gang violence in our communities by providing residents with resources designed to reduce the destructive influence street gangs have historically held over many of the City s neighborhoods. The success of our strategic approach to tackling this problem was demonstrated by the observed reductions in the total number of gang homicides, aggravated assaults, shots fired, and victims shot citywide. Under the leadership of Mayor Eric Garcetti, we strengthened coordination with the Gang Reduction and Youth Development (GRYD) Office to expand gang intervention programming in our most vulnerable neighborhoods. GRYD, which was designed to create safe spaces and provide vital resources for community members through initiatives such as Summer Night Lights, Fall Friday Nights, and the annual Gun Buy Back program, was key to our expansion of the Community Safety Partnership (CSP) program into Harvard Park. In turn, the Harvard Park CSP program harnessed collaborations between community groups, City resources, and officers dedicated to relationship-based policing to successfully transform what was once a dangerous hub for gang activity into a healthy environment for people to live, work, and play. Each of the Department s CSP sites have proven the power of placing communities and their specific needs at the center of our policing efforts; and they collectively stand apart as the models for the next generation of policing. MORE RESPONSIVE We made a pledge in 218 to continue to put more officers back on the street and dedicate resources to LAPD s core function uniform patrol partnering with our diverse communities answering calls for service and responding to critical incidents in our city. In 218, we reorganized and furthered streamlined the Department, reallocating additional resources from administrative positions and specialized functions to patrol divisions with the sole purpose of returning 5 personnel to geographic areas. This reorganization, coupled with the first full-year providing police services to the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, resulted in more than one million more scheduled work hours compared to 216. It also effectively increased the number of officers patrolling our City s streets. In conjunction with returning resources to patrol divisions, the Department also trained and deployed 1 additional Police Service Representatives reducing the wait times to the more than 3.4-million 911 calls this year. FEWER USES OF FORCE Los Angeles police officers responded to more than 1-million Radio Calls in 218, a 6-percent increase from the previous year. However, through an emphasis on the preservation of life, access to less lethal force options, and continued de-escalation training, the total number of Categorical Uses of Force declined 18 percent with 13 fewer Officer Involved Shootings (marking a 28-percent reduction). In a continued commitment to use the least amount of force necessary to resolve crisis situations, the Department tested and deployed nearly 3 new 4mm less lethal launchers, which utilize foam rounds designed to impact but not penetrate the skin. The Department anticipates providing this tool to all patrol resources by the end of 219. SAFER ROADS In 218 the Department took significant steps to reduce the number of serious injuries and fatalities that were the result of traffic accidents. With the Mayor s Vision Zero Campaign as our guiding blueprint, the Department restructured traffic commands to make getting from point A to point B safer for Angelenos. By centralizing these divisions between four different Bureaus into one single command, we were better able to coordinate LAPD traffic resources city-wide. Working with our city partners at the Department of Transportation, along with the Bureaus of Street Services, Lighting, and Engineering, we were able to complete long over-due speed surveys. This provided officers the ability to use the tools they were given to enforce laws aimed at promoting safer driving and the protections of pedestrians traversing our busy streets.

4 LOOKING AHEAD TO 219 As the Department moves into 219, it will continue its relentless pursuit of building trust, engaging the public, and enhancing the safety and quality of life for all Angelenos. We will accomplish this by reducing crime, increasing responsiveness, and strengthening partnerships through the following initiatives: Expanding the Community Safety Partnership program into the San Fernando Valley and Operations Central Bureau Complete the redeployment of an additional 2 police officers to geographic areas Implement and expand Youth Diversion Programs Citywide Conduct additional Community Surveys to; gauge performance and gain insight into community sentiment, evaluate the effects of specific programs, and allow the Department to be more proactive in developing communitybased solutions to localized problems Continued expansion of community partnerships to emphasize the critical importance of emergency preparedness in our neighborhoods Continue to develop of relationships with our community partners to address the needs of persons experiencing homelessness, with the goal of reducing victimization of our most vulnerable residents Increasing the operational capabilities and service hours of the City s Unified Homelessness Response Center Modernization of Technology with an emphasis on improving efficiencies and working conditions to reduce time spent on administrative tasks Exploring new methods to prevent and solve crime through precision & evidencebased policing, leveraging data to promote transparency and accountability Revitalizing, energizing, and expanding our volunteer cadres, reserves and Community Police Advisory Boards Utilizing emerging technologies and systems to increase the ease with which the public can report traffic accidents and other crimes to improve the efficiency with which they are investigated CELEBRATING 15 YEARS OF SERVICE TO THE CITY OF LOS ANGELES
