Today we pause to honor those who gave everything. To all who made the ultimate sacrifice — your memory lives on. From the men and women of the Yonkers Police Department, 4th Precinct. 🇺🇸🕯️ #MemorialDay2026 #NeverForget #YonkersPD #HonorTheFallen

The Yonkers Police Department wishes everyone a safe and happy Memorial Day. As you spend time with family and friends this holiday weekend, please take a moment to remember and honor the brave men and women of our Armed Forces who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. Their courage and dedication will never be forgotten. 🇺🇸 @YonkersESU @YPDDetectives @YonkersPD1 @YonkersPD2 @YonkersPD3 @YonkersPD4

Bill Cassidy voted his conscience on impeachment, then spent five years sucking up to Donald Trump. He was the deciding vote for the most unqualified HHS Secretary in my lifetime, a guy laying ruin to the public health system, all to get Trump's favor. Message to my fellow Republicans: you're not going to get his favor. It doesn't work that way.

Anytime, anywhere. ESU. Five months. Thousands of training hours. One mission - being ready when the call comes. Last week, 23 officers from 6 departments graduated from a rigorous Emergency Service Unit (ESU) School hosted by the Yonkers Police Department. This program tested every aspect of the job - Emergency Medical Technician certification, specialized firearms and weapons, SWAT operations, and technical rescue training to name a few- preparing these officers for some of the most dangerous and high-risk situations in public safety. We’re proud to welcome 9 newly trained YPD ESU Officers to the road, and we congratulate the other graduates from the Mount Vernon Police Department, New Rochelle Police Department, White Plains Police Department, Tuckahoe Police Department, and Port Chester Police Department. This isn’t just another school - it’s the foundation for the officers who respond when situations are at their worst. @YonkersESU #yonkerspd #yonkerspolice #yonkers #swat #esu

@GovChristie @springsteen Figured 2 hated men would bond

Is a dream a lie if it don't come true?

🕊️ Remembering Ian Richard Olson. After battling lymphoma for 10 long years, Ian finally received the news he had fought his entire childhood to hear — he was cancer free. He was only 18 years old and had his whole life ahead of him. Just one week later, on December 21, 2018, Ian was shot in the back of the head during a robbery in Portland. His killer, Jeremiah Hannon, was 15 years old and reportedly admitted he did it simply because he “felt like it.” Ian dreamed of the life so many take for granted — getting married, having a family, building a future. That future was stolen from him forever. Now, the person who murdered him is scheduled to walk free before turning 25. At some point, society has to stop pretending someone is “too young to understand” when they are fully capable of pulling a trigger and taking an innocent life. Never forget Ian Olson. 🙏

A great day at the 4th Precinct Open House! 💙 Thank you to everyone who came out to connect, engage, and strengthen the bond between our community and law enforcement. Together, we continue building a safer and stronger community for all. #4thPrecinct #CommunityStrong @YonkersPD4

U.S. Attorney Pirro was in attendance at USMS National Police Week ceremony to honor these brave men and women and to reaffirm our office's commitment to supporting the law enforcement community that protects our nation’s capital.

Retired D/Capt Pat McCormack stopped by the Third precinct to drop off lunch for police week. D/Capt McCormack was the former commanding officer of this command for many years. Now he is the director of security at St Joseph’s Medical center. Great to see you and thanks for lunch Cap! @YonkersPD3

County Legislator David Tubiolo stopped by the 2nd Precinct today to help celebrate Police Week with Sgt Reilly and PO George. Thanks for coming by!

This past week we celebrated the retirement of our Commanding Officer, Captain Andrew McLaughlin. Capt McLaughlin has been a member of the YPD for over 31 years. We would like to wish him all the best in his retirement and wherever the next chapter takes him. Thank you Cap!

Happy Mothers Day !!

Celebrate National Police Week with the Yonkers Police Department! Join us at one of our many events from May 11th through May 17th! President John F. Kennedy proclaimed May 15th as National Peace Officers Memorial Day and the calendar week in which May 15th falls, as "National Police Week." Established by a joint resolution of Congress in 1962, National Police Week pays special recognition to those law enforcement officers who have lost their lives in the line of duty for the safety and protection of others. It has now grown into a collaborative effort of many different law enforcement organizations to honor America’s law enforcement community across the country. Some event highlights: 📅 Monday, May 11th, Mayor Spano and Police Commissioner Sapienza will kick off National Police Week with a brief ceremony at the Unity Fountain in front of City Hall at 1:30 PM. 📅 Tuesday, May 12th, we will hold our annual Yonkers Police Awards Ceremony and Memorial Service at Castle Royale on Waverly St. The dinner reception begins at 5:00 PM, and the awards ceremony begins at 6:00 PM. Immediately following this ceremony, we will hold a memorial service honoring all YPD members who lost their lives in the line of duty. 📅 Friday, May 15th, we will hold open houses at both our Community Kids Closet (located at the PAL) and the George Rutledge Yonkers Police Museum (located in YPD Headquarters). All four Yonkers Police Precincts will be hosting open houses during the week; community members are encouraged to stop by and meet their local Officers. Our Community Affairs Division will be in a different precinct each day, offering free handouts for kids, as well as information and sign-up sheets for many of our outreach programs and services. Our new Mobile Command Center will be there too for a hands-on tour! Take a look at our schedule for more info on all our events next week! #yonkerspd #yonkerspolice #yonkers #policeweek
