Looking for a way to give back to your community?

The Lorain Police Department is now accepting applications for our Auxiliary Unit!

Auxiliary members support LPD by assisting officers with community events, traffic and crowd control, patrol support, and other duties that help keep Lorain safe. It's a hands-on way to serve your neighborhood and work alongside our officers without becoming a full-time sworn officer.

If you're reliable, community-minded, and ready to put in the work, we want to hear from you.

Apply now through the link below:

The Titans 8th graders came ready to play!

There were big hits, tough runs, and plenty of effort on the field yesterday as they took on the Euclid Panthers at George Daniels Field.

LPD was glad to be there, firing up the grill donated by Home Depot. The grill helped us make sure the players, along with the high school team after practice, had a meal waiting for them.

Good football, good food, and a great night with the community.

Today was a big first day for some of Lorain’s youngest students!

LPD officers stopped by Larkmoor, Hawthorne, Washington and Helen Steiner to welcome kindergarten students as they started the new school year. We handed out goodie bags, shared a few smiles and helped make the morning a little more special.

Wishing all of our students, families and school staff a safe and great school year!

Please join us in welcoming Ryan Campana, the newest intern with the Lorain Police Department!

Ryan is a Criminal Justice student at Bowling Green State University and will be completing a 250-hour internship with LPD. During his time with us, he’ll have the opportunity to learn more about the day-to-day operations of law enforcement and gain hands-on experience alongside members of our department.

We’re glad to have Ryan with us and look forward to being part of his education and professional development.

Welcome to LPD, Ryan!

Lorain City Schools welcomed families to Garfield Early Learning Center today as the building transitions to serving preschool students for the 2026–2027 school year!

The event gave families an opportunity to visit the facility, meet with community organizations, learn about available programs and resources, and enjoy activities including food trucks, inflatables, giveaways and music.

LPD officers also joined the event, spending time with families and handing out ice cream to those in attendance.

Garfield also serves as a location for family resources, including food assistance provided in partnership with Second Harvest Food Bank.

Thank you to Lorain City Schools and the participating community organizations for having us out.

What started as a simple bike stop turned into something much more.

Officers Orzech and Lieb with LPD’s Patrol Impact Team (PIT) encountered a man riding without a bike light and learned he had been riding for nearly four hours trying to reach a homeless shelter.

The officers made sure he had a hot meal, something cold to drink, and some encouragement before he continued on his way.

Later, after his bicycle was stolen, officers were able to locate it and return it to him.

The work of our Patrol Impact Team goes beyond enforcement. Sometimes it means recognizing when someone needs a hand and taking the time to help.
