The Long Beach Police Department provides law enforcement for the city of Long Beach, California, USA.

History

In 2004, the department introduced Tasers and distributed them to officers. Results show that officer injuries were down by 25 percent, damage claims down by 33 percent, and arrests up by two percent.

The air support unit currently uses two Eurocopter EC-130B4 helicopters, known as Fox-1 and Fox-2, which can seat up to 8 people. Their previous police aircraft were two MD 500E helicopters which could only seat 5 people.

On November 12, 2007, the Long Beach Police Department announced plans to return to the MD 500E as their primary police helicopter. The reasons for the switch primarily are due to higher operating costs involved in using the EC-130s. [ [http://www.gazettes.com/helicopter11122007.html Gazette Newspapers] ]
