This past Saturday (April 25th), at approximately 3:45 PM, LPD Dispatch received reports of a large group of juveniles riding off-highway electric motorcycles (e-motos), electric bicycles, pocket bikes, and traditional bicycles in the area of Lower Sacramento Rd and Kettleman Ln. Officers responded and located the group, which quickly dispersed into smaller groups traveling in different directions.

During the incident, two juveniles were stopped in separate locations. An e-moto and a pocket bike were impounded, and both juveniles were cited for numerous vehicle code violations, including reckless driving.

Situations like this highlight why we continue to focus on both awareness and accountability when it comes to roadway safety. Riding in a dangerous or unlawful manner puts not only the rider at risk but also drivers, pedestrians, and others in the community.

Parents and guardians: Please take time to talk with your children about the importance of following traffic laws, riding responsibly, and understanding how quickly unsafe decisions can lead to serious consequences. These conversations play a critical role in keeping them, and others, safe.

LPD will continue working to address these concerns through proactive patrols, enforcement when necessary, and ongoing outreach to keep our roadways safe for everyone.

As we continue celebrating National Volunteer Week, we want to take a moment to recognize our Chaplains and Cadets.

Our Police Cadet Program engages local youth ages 16 to 24, offering valuable hands-on experience during their high school and college years. Cadets support a wide range of duties that help them gain valuable experience. Many go on to pursue future careers in law enforcement, and we are proud to be part of their journey.

We also extend our deep appreciation to our Police Chaplains, who have faithfully served since the program’s establishment in February 1994.

They provide vital, emotional, and spiritual support to department personnel and their families, offering comfort, guidance, and care both behind the scenes and during critical moments. From responding to emergencies in our community, to supporting us in times of crisis, their presence is invaluable.

Thank you to our Cadets and Chaplains for your dedication, compassion, and commitment to our department and community. 💙
