The following updates were shared by Los Angeles Police Department Senior Lead Officer for Pacific Palisades Brian Espin on October 23 and 30.

On our last Community Police Advisory Board meeting, our captain mentioned the lessening of the LAPD footprint in the Palisades. This is due to the low volume and frequency of crimes in the area. We will still have our assigned Palisades patrol unit, our Beach Detail unit and one extra patrol unit from one of our neighboring stations. Our command has said they will definitely reevaluate the necessity for increasing resources if there is an increase in crime.

We had our hillside taskforce with our awesome volunteers of the Pacific Palisades Taskforce on Homelessness and our neighboring enforcement and outreach agencies (California State Parks Rangers, LA City Park Rangers, MRCA and The People Concern) on October 22. There were a couple locations where some debris was located and removed by our volunteers.

We had a small cluster of vehicle thefts located within a small area of Santa Monica Canyon. These vehicle thefts occurred on different days and times. Once we see the cluster, our detectives immediately start to look for any similarities or see if they can be connected in any way. As of now the detectives have not seen anything to connect the vehicle thefts, they appear to be isolated incidents.

Check your property often (or have someone check it for you) to prevent squatters or someone frequently entering your property.

Tell your construction crews to secure their tools and equipment to prevent theft. Do not leave tools lying in the back of trucks or unlocked vehicles.

Have construction crews GPS tag all high-end equipment.

Place and secure tools and equipment in well-lit areas of the property and monitored by security cameras.
