Irving Police Dept.

Several firearms and approximately 6.475 kilograms of fentanyl were recently seized by investigators, with an estimated street value between $975,000 and $1 million. This outstanding police work prevented thousands of potentially lethal doses from ever reaching our streets. Just one pill can kill, and every seizure like this plays a critical role in protecting our community. Keeping our streets safe is a shared responsibility. Residents are encouraged to stay alert, talk with loved ones about the dangers of fentanyl and illegal narcotics, and report suspicious activity to law enforcement. Working together, we can continue making our community safer for everyone.

It takes a special kind of person to step behind the walls and wear the badge of a Detention Officer. It requires strong decision making, sound judgment, and the ability to lead with integrity in every situation. This week, we are proud to recognize and celebrate our Detention Officers, professionals who may go unseen but whose impact is felt every single day. They maintain safety, order, and professionalism in our facility, carrying out their duties with commitment and discipline.  If you or someone you know is ready to serve with pride and make a difference every day, we encourage you to apply. Join our team and be part of something that matters! We’re hiring more Detention Officers!
