About us
The Seattle Police Department is a large metropolitan public safety agency in Washington state with nearly 1,100 sworn officers. We receive over 800,000 911 calls annually in a city of 84 square miles. We have more specialty units than any other department in the state, including: traffic, harbor, mounted patrol, major crimes, property crimes, crisis response, SWAT, arson and bombs, K9, collaborative (community) policing, forensics, training and community response. On a daily basis, our officers are asked to do a little bit of everything - from investigating and solving crimes; to patrolling our waterways, parks and city streets; to keeping everyone safe during sporting events and parades; to connecting our city's most vulnerable residents with much-needed services. The mission of the Seattle Police Department is to prevent crime, enforce the law, and support quality public safety by delivering respectful, professional and dependable police services.

I was incredibly honored to join forces with Seattle Police Department, Walmart, Umatilla County Sheriff, King County Sheriff's Office, Washington State Patrol and the Lacey Police Department, for a mission that truly touches the heart. Together, we delivered food and toys Seattle Children's Hospital and Ronald McDonald House Charities. Walking into those spaces and seeing the incredible resilience of children battling cancer and challenging medical conditions was profoundly humbling. Even with Santa by our side, watching these brave kids light up when they saw our uniforms was a moment I'll never forget. These are the moments that transform a job into a calling. Being able to bring a moment of joy, hope, and wonder to children facing unimaginable challenges – there's no greater privilege. The Umatilla County Sheriff (From NE Oregon) hosts this toy drive, each year, in support of Detective Mike Ellwood’s daughter, Jasmine, who was diagnosed with bone cancer at 15 years old. The support and reach grows every year, with both Oregon and Washington children’s hospitals, Ronald McDonald House Charities, local pediatric centers, and community partners housing families fighting similar battles, during their time of need. Grateful to serve, grateful to make a difference. 🚔❤️🎄 #CommunityService #HolidaySpirit #LawEnforcement #Giving #jasminestrong- +5

We’ve got to give a shout-out to the Seattle Police Department Traffic Section Motorcycle Unit for being so incredibly awesome! These officers work nonstop throughout Seattle’s busy events season to plan for an action-packed schedule of sporting events, parades, dignitary escorts, and other last-minute events and incidents that pop up. Once these plans are in place, then it’s up to the motorcycle officers to activate and implement the plans, while also addressing any unexpected challenges that happen to arise. 🚓💙🏍 They work incredibly hard, are tireless advocates for public safety, don’t get a lot of time off, and receive far too few accolades for their unrelenting dedication to Seattle. This year's Seafair Festival was no exception. ✈️🚤🎉 Because it takes a large team to perform security escorts safely, SPD’s Motorcycle Unit relied on riders from neighboring agencies to safely get the U.S. Navy Blue Angels pilots from downtown Seattle to the King County International Airport over Seafair weekend. HUGE thanks to the Washington State Patrol, King County Sheriff's Office (Sammamish Police), the Whatcom County Sheriff's Office, Skagit County Sheriff's Office, and the Snohomish County Sheriff's Office, and the Lakewood, Auburn, Bellevue, and Redmond WA Police Departments for their support! 💙🥳🤝🫶 Please join us in thanking SPD’s Motorcycle Unit for all that they do to ensure the safety of Seattle residents, neighbors, and visitors as they walk, bike, and drive in our city. We are very grateful for all that these officers do to support public safety in Seattle. 🥰#publicsafety #seattlepolice #spdmotorcycle- +4
