The current number of police officers is just over 10 000, plus 3000 associated civilian staff, making it one of the largest police departments in the territory of the United States. Its main building is located in Pershing Square, Commerce. The highest rank, in control of the LSPD is called Chief of Police. The LSPD currently operates with 4 divisions and 10 sub-divisions. The most known of them are the Crime Investigation Division (CID), Community Resources Against Street Hoodlums (CRASH) and Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) amongst all other divisions.  | The Crime Investigation Division handles all criminal investigations in the city of Los Santos. It was opened in the mid-60s. The investigation division was created with the idea of organized minor and major crime to be dealt with a different and more wiser approach than from before. The LSPD selects to recruit only the best working and record clean police officers, to take the positions of detectives and operate within it. All procedures are controlled by the person called Chief Inspector, who is also taking a high rank within the LSPD structure. The Special Weapons and Tactics is a division specialized for high risk situations involving more organized work with combat tactics and weaponry use. The SWAT officers are specially trained to operate with heavy damage weapons and special equipment |
in order to gain control over the so called deadly situations. The head in charge of SWAT is called SWAT Commander. The Community Resources Against Street Hoodlums division is concentrated on preventing, taking control and gathering info on sight of any street level unorganized or organized crime, based mainly in the area of poor low class areas, known as "ghettos". The members within it are officers, chosen to and recruited inside the division. The division is managed by the head of CRASH. Another notable division is the Air Support Division (ASD), responsible for any air related operations and movement with the LSPD helicopters by specially trained police officer pilots. Each member who joins the Los Santos police starts from the rank of Police Officer I. Depending on his time served in the law, by promotions he can reach the rank of Senior Lead Officer, which gives him semi-leading permissions and bigger responsibilities. From that point, only trusted officers are chosen for a promotion in a selective manner to the rank of Sergeant, as it gives bigger powers and control over lower ranked officers, thus only good performing members are chosen for it, based on their work history, knowledge and administrative abilities. The above higher ranks are into the police administration and serve with a far bigger control power within the department. Lieutenant, Captain, Commander and Chief of Police, form a part of the LSPD called the 'High Command'. This part discusses and takes any decisions for the current state and future of the LSPD, and every rank's opinion and suggestion is taken in count, respectively depending on his rank. The CID has an own rank system, sorting its members by the ranks of Detective and Senior Detective. Rank Structure- Police Officer I
