Lompoc Police Department 2024 Annual Report

AUGUST

OFFICER BLAKE MARTINEZ SWORN IN Officer Blake Martinez was sworn in at Lompoc City Hall, continuing a three-generation family tradition of service. His grandfather, Frank Martinez, served as Lompoc's first motor officer from 1952 for nearly 30 years, while his father, Art Martinez, dedicated over 31 years to law enforcement from 1982 to 2003.

WOMEN’S SELF-DEFENSE CLASS Over the course of three days at Allan Hancock College, our officers, in collaboration with Santa Maria Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, facilitated a women's self-defense program tailored specifically for young women preparing for college.

NATIONAL NIGHT OUT

This year’s National Night Out was in collaboration with Lompoc Valley Community Healthcare Organization and the Lompoc School District. We had a huge turnout with Floriano’s and Grocery Outlet providing free meals to the community with LSD providing free backpacks. Many more of our community partners came together and showed a strong sense of community and collaboration.

The Lompoc Police Foundation hosted its 20th annual cruise and car show. Proceeds from this event support the foundation in acquiring essential resources for the department that may not be included in the city’s budget. Historically, the foundation has funded the purchase of SWAT rifles, an Armored Response Vehicle (ARV), and additional necessary equipment. LOMPOC FOUNDATION CAR CRUISE & CAR SHOW
