The Pasadena Police Department is Committed to a Safe and Joyful Holiday Season
With the Christmas holidays around the corner, the Pasadena Police Department is taking proactive steps to ensure our community can celebrate safely and responsibly.
We want to remind everyone of the dangers of celebratory gunfire and illegal fireworks. ⚠️ While these activities might seem festive, they carry serious risks, including injuries, property damage, and even loss of life.
Safety is our top priority, and we are dedicating additional resources to keep our community protected:
•Increased patrol manpower to provide enhanced visibility and rapid response.
•The Pasadena Fire Marshal on duty to address firework-related incidents promptly.
•Drone technology will be utilized for aerial surveillance to monitor and address illegal activities.
•Twice as many call takers will be available to ensure reports are handled quickly and efficiently.
We encourage everyone to do their part. If you witness celebratory gunfire or illegal fireworks, report it immediately. Additionally, if you’ve experienced these issues in your neighborhood before, please let us know. Your reports help us focus patrols and resources where they are needed most.
Together, we can ensure a safe and joyful holiday season for everyone in Pasadena.
