On March the 10[sup]th[/sup], 2020, The San Andreas State Government has announced two Chief appointments in the Los Santos Police Department and Los Santos Emergency Medical Services.
Almost two weeks after Commissioner Samuel Osborn's appointment in the Los Santos City Hall, Assistant Chief of Police Alex Donnelly was appointed as the new Chief of Police. Chief of Police Alex Donnelly joined the Los Santos Police Department back in 2017 and rose through the ranks with hard and dedicated work for the Department and the City of Los Santos. Additionally, Chief of Police Alex Donnelly is responsible for numerous internal changes within the Los Santos Police Department that have helped ensure that each Police Officer is ready to the best of their abilities to serve and protect the community.
Personal Message from Chief of Police Alex Donnelly:
I joined the Los Santos Police Department in 2017. I have served for an active period of over 900 days. I was offered to take the mantle of the position of Chief of Police and I have wholeheartedly accepted. During my time in the Office of the Chief, I have played a proactive role in maintaining our department's standards. As someone heavily involved with the training and hiring of our officers, I have the first-hand experience in what our standards have been like and what I would like to see them continue as. I expect the most from our members and I am happy to be spearheading the department as a whole.
Serving as the Assistant Chief for almost 200 days now, I should have no issues settling into my new position. My goals in my new position will be going over how the department operates and seeing what changes need to be made so we can improve our performance. There is always room for improvement and my belief in that is shown with how we have included our Investigations Bureau being more involved in our operations as a whole. I aim to continue this rise.
My appointment to this position would not have been possible if not for the vote of the Board of Commissioners. I am eternally grateful for this chance. I would also like to extend this thanks to all the members of the Los Santos Police Department. Without the wonderful team, none of this would have been possible. I will make my predecessors proud, the department proud and the commissioners proud.
Thank you.

Investigations Bureau March Update
March 2020 - Bureau UpdateInvestigations Bureau-- Introduction
As we leave the third month of the new year behind, we're going to be moving into April as the Investigations Bureau's Detective team continues to grow. I would like to extend a warm welcome to all readers as I'm given the opportunity and platform to open yet another monthly update for the Investigations Bureau. Today, I am pleased to present all the changes, updates and accomplishments of importance that have been within the Investigations Bureau and its personnel through the March monthly update. This will be the twentieth monthly update that I have published, and simultaneously the third update published in 2020.
-
Roster Changes
Every month, the Investigations Bureau goes through a variety of roster changes, such as but not limited to new Police Officers being recruited and brought into the Investigations Bureau, or personnel of the Bureau rising through the ranks of the Los Santos Police Department.
During the month of March, the following roster changes have occurred.
The following Detective has successfully passed the Detective Training Program. Welcome to the Detective team!
Police Officer III→ 
Police Detective I
- Frank Moses
- Lieutenant Alex Keller, Gangs and Narcotics Division Commanding Officer
- Lieutenant Daniels Shelby, Gangs and Narcotics Division Assistant Commanding Officer
- Detective I Abel Montgomery, Gangs and Narcotics Division Detective
- Detective II Lex Roth has been appointed as the Commanding Officer of the Gangs and Narcotics Division.
- Detective II Belle Cavallera has been appointed as the Assistant Commanding Officer of the Detective Support and Vice Division.
Internal Database Restructure
As most of the Police Officers and Detectives of the Investigations Bureau have most likely noticed, several items in our internal database have been moved around or have been removed entirely. This is something that was done with the intent of consolidating our database, more specifically to reduce the size of our database whilst maintaining the contents.
As such, you will find that several sections that you were formerly familiar with and knew as their own individual section within our database have been moved and consolidated into a singular thread per item under a previously existing subsection respectively, rather than having an individual section in our database for every single entry - think of the most recent change to the Narcotic Confiscation Reports.
This has allowed for the database to have more sections on display, enabling easier access for our Detectives, in the long run, potentially increasing the efficiency of work being done due to not having to dive into an endless database.

Field Training Program March Update
Dear Field Training Officers,
The month of March has once again been a steady month for the Field Training Division. The Division has now moved away from the General Operations Bureau and is now under the Police Training Bureau which is directed by myself. This will allow for the training program hosted in the FTD to have a much stronger focus rather than being a part of all general operations.
A further exciting change that the FTD saw in March was that FTO applicants are now tested practically to scrutinize their ability to practically teach a topic so that we can ensure the highest standards of teaching for our new and future Cadets. This has been in play now for almost two weeks and has been a huge success.
Throughout the month of March, 76 unique field training sessions and 86 formal observations were conducted meaning that there were 160 formal interactions with cadets throughout March which is more than double that of February - Well done everyone!
The month of March saw us introduce 7 new Field Training Officers into the Field Training Division - Welcome all!
- Police Officer III - Edward Sharp
- Police Officer II - Jamie Richardsons
- Police Officer II - Chris Crawford
- Police Officer II - George Vern
- Police Officer II - Zackariyah Khan
- Police Officer II - Mark Sloan
- Police Officer II - Jake McDuff
This month we have successfully passed 14 Cadets through the Field Training Program and are proud to see how well they have done.- Alex Tanner

For the month of March, the Field Training Division Command has decided to make Police Officer III Miles Logan our Field Training Officer of the Month. This month, Officer Logan has had the joint highest FTS count with well written reports. Officer Logan racked up 9 formal field training sessions and 8 observation reports - Well done! This award entitles Officer Logan to a salary bonus of $5000 (($50,000)), paid directly from the Commanding Officer of the Field Training Division.
Be sure to congratulate Officer Logan whenever you see him on duty.

SWAT Division March Update
Los Santos Police Department
Special Weapons and Tactics Division Update - March 2020
"TO PROTECT AND SERVE"- Division Update
- Hello Operatives,
Another month has passed in Los Santos, and the SWAT division still moves forward. This month saw increases in the number of trainings available to our operatives thanks to our new instructors, and delegation of training tasks to groups of instructors. It has also seen a rapid uptick in the number of David patrols, to the point a David unit with SWAT operatives ready to respond is usually available more often than not.
SWAT also expanded our roster to respond to the increased level of gang activity this month. Our continuing mission is to protect the citizens of the city as well as our own officers from predatory gangs, and our reputation alone often forces these organizations to back down.
- Hello Operatives,
- Division Statistics
- This month saw a total of 38 reported active deployments, 16 reported David patrols, and 6 reported passive deployments. This means SWAT deploys on average 1.39 times per day to extreme situations, and SWAT Operatives patrol the city together at least every other day. This means SWAT has a constant presence in the field to respond to the increased levels of gang activity.
