Costa Mesa Police Department

Costa Mesa Police Department

The Costa Mesa Police Department (CMPD) is a police organization active in Costa Mesa, California.

Organization

The department is authorized 143 officers plus civilian support staff. The sworn personnel are represented by the Costa Mesa Police Officer Association.[1][2] The department's web site seems to indicate the agency operates a police dog unit, motorcycle patrols and a SWAT team.

The department seems to divide the city into Area 1 and Area 2, both areas being commanded by an officer in the rank of lieutenant.[3]

The Support Services includes the Detective Bureau, Helicopter Bureau, and the Traffic Safety Bureau.[4]

The Detective Bureau has three details, Property Crimes, Economic Crimes and Crimes against Persons.[5]

Technical Services include the jail, Property and Evidence Bureau, Records Bureau, a Training Bureau and an Recruiting Bureau.[6]

The department also has an Animal Control Section[7]

Mid-air collision

On 10 March, 1987, a helicopter from the CMPD collided with another helicopter operated by the Newport Beach Police Department. The two crewmen in the CMPD aircraft were killed, while the other aircraft was able to land safely.[8]
