The Shreveport Police Department is a customer service-oriented agency dedicated to serving and protecting all the citizens of Shreveport, LA. Our mission is to provide outstanding police services, in partnership with the community, to maintain a safe environment that contributes to the quality of life for all citizens in the Shreveport area.
         Police Chief H. L. Whitehorn

Cooperation between the department, the City of Shreveport and the community at large makes this a dynamic, diverse and exciting place.

The Shreveport Police Department handles more than 250,000 calls for service each year. It patrols the city's 100 square miles with officers in 13 police districts. Roughly 500 sworn police officers are employed, handling everything from patrol to investigations.

The City of Shreveport, known by many for its casino gambling boats, plays host to dozens of fairs, festivals and parades each year. The department works hard to ensure that visitors, as well as residents, have a fun and safe time at all of these events.

The department works hard to fight crime. We, the men and women of the Shreveport Police Department, will continue to work hard to improve the quality of life and make Shreveport an even greater place to live.
