E-bike safety starts with education.

During our recent operation, Chandler officers educated riders on traffic laws and safe riding. One illegal motorized bike was removed from the road and released to a parent.

Our goal is simple: keep everyone safe.

A stolen gun doesn’t just disappear. It often shows up at another crime scene. Lock it up. Take it with you.

The temperature inside a parked car can become deadly within minutes.

As heat levels rise, this is another reminder to never leave children or pets inside of a parked car.

In this case, Chandler officers rescued the dog and took it to a nearby animal hospital for evaluation. The dog is now in the care of the Arizona Humane Society.

The person who left the dog, was cited for animal cruelty.
