SPD is proud to have been a part of the "Show Up, Seattle!" day of service hosted by the Department of Neighborhoods on Saturday. Volunteers from across the city cleaned up litter, pulled weeds, and focused on sprucing up public spaces. Great job, Seattle!

It appears our Blotter is unavailable at this time. Other City blogs may also be unavailable. We do not have a timeline for its return. Thanks for your patience as City IT figures this out.

As the Mariners' season comes to a close, everyone at the Seattle Police Department would like to thank Rick Rizzs for being a consistent voice in this city's history for 41 seasons. This Baseball Hall of Fame-bound announcer has been with us through some of the biggest moments in Seattle sports history. From Rick and Dave Niehaus calling the 1995 ALDS Championship to Cal Raleigh's 60th home run, his signature calls brought the tension and excitement of baseball to life for generations of baseball fans. Thanks, and my oh my, it has been a great ride.

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

On Friday 9/25, SPD is partnering with WSP and other local agencies to honor Trooper Christopher Gadd, who was killed by a DUI driver in 2024. Extra traffic safety patrols will be out this weekend to look for dangerous driving. We hope they have nothing to do.

Slow down, put the phone away, buckle up, and drive sober.

Everyone deserves to be safe on our roads. Look out for each other, and we'll be looking out for you too.

The academy tested them. They answered. Now a new class of officers is ready to serve Seattle and build a legacy of their own.

Interim Chief Andre Sayles joined a team from the Seattle Police Department, the Seattle Fire Department, and Seattle Center to raise the American flag this morning in remembrance of the 9/11 attacks 25 years ago. May we never forget what our fellow Americans, our fellow first responders, or our world endured on September 11th, 2001.
