San Jose Police Department

Congratulations to our newly promoted SJPD Deputy Chief Macedonio Zuniga! 🎉🎉🎉

Today the Children's Advocacy Center of Santa Clara County celebrated five years of providing life-changing services to thousands of children and families in our community. The San José Police Department has long shared the same commitment as CAC, and together, have been ensuring that survivors have the resources necessary to heal and reintegrate, while holding perpetrators accountable. That is why two of our SJPD Sexual Assaults Investigation Unit Detectives were also recognized during the celebration for their outstanding partnership and dedication to children and their families. Thank you to CAC for this honorable recognition, and for your compassion and leadership throughout the years.

FIFA World Cup celebrations are quickly approaching! The San José Police Department would like the public to be aware of street closures that will be in place in downtown San José from June 10, 2026 to June 15, 2026. Scan the QR code to view the maps and plan ahead! ⚽️🚧

A time for community, gathering and peace. Wishing all those celebrating a joyful and safe Eid al-Adha from SJPD.

We love it when officers find their way back to where they’re meant to be! This Officer previously left the San Jose Police Department for an opportunity with another agency, but has recently returned to continue serving our San Jose community. It says a lot when Officers return to our Department: not only do we create irreplaceable opportunities for career growth, but also lifelong friendships and a supportive family culture. We know you want to call San Jose your home too. Visit sjpdyou.com to join our SJPD family today!

Today SJPD Chief Joseph, Captain Tran and Captain Torres were honored and grateful to participate in this year’s Memorial Day remembrance ceremony at Oak Hill Funeral Home & Memorial Park.

For more than 100 years, this sacred tradition has brought our community together to honor the brave servicemen and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. It is a true privilege to stand alongside veterans, military leaders, civic officials, first responders and community members in remembrance of our fallen and missing heroes.

Their courage and sacrifice will never be forgotten. 🇺🇸

Last night, patrol officers conducted a vehicle enforcement stop near Race St. and San Carlos St. involving a driver who previously fled from officers weeks ago.

Officers conducted extensive follow-up and obtained multiple warrants that led to the recovery of narcotics-related evidence, cash, a stolen shotgun, and additional paraphernalia. The suspect was ultimately booked into jail.

A safer city doesn’t happen by chance, it’s protected every day. Great job Western Division keeping San Jose safe!

Today we proudly celebrated the graduation of SJ Academy 54. Completing the Academy takes dedication, resilience, and hard work, and these new officers demonstrated all of those qualities every step of the way.

Their journey is just beginning as they head into field training, ready to serve and protect the San José community.

In light of the recent attack in San Diego, the San Jose Police Department has been increasing patrols around places of worship in our city to reassure our community that public safety will be prioritized and hate will not be tolerated. Today, SJPD Chief Joseph visited the South Bay Islamic Association to reiterate that message and commitment to keeping our community safe.
