The backbone of our agency, members of the Uniformed Patrol Bureau respond to calls for service and safeguard our city 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
The Uniform Patrol Division is the largest division of the Leesburg Police Department, with a Captain as the Division Commander, supported by a Lieutenant who provides oversight and other administrative assistance as needed. The Division is comprised of four patrol squads and multiple specialized units, including Traffic, Canine (K-9), Crime Suppression Unit, Training, Community Services, SWAT and Crisis Negotiations. Each patrol squad is made up of a team of uniformed officers who are led by a Sergeant, with the support of a Corporal. The officers within this Division are the first responders in most police related activity occurring within the City and they are assigned to geographical patrol sectors, having the primary responsibility for police activity in those sectors during their tours of duty.
These uniformed officers respond to a multitude of calls for service, including traffic crashes, general traffic complaints, business checks, neighborhood patrols, in addition to any criminal activity and other non-criminal related complaints that may occur within the City. The division helps prevent crime and provides a visible presence to the public, instilling confidence and security within the community. Its officers are the first responders who take charge of situations that require immediate action to resolve or mitigate safety issues or concerns. Additionally, Patrol Sergeants may assign officers special duties to focus attention in areas of concern and crime trends identified through the Intelligence Led Policing model.
