SAN BERNARDINO, CA – In a move to bolster safety and security in the unincorporated areas of the Fifth District, Supervisor Joe Baca, Jr., celebrates the announcement of additional law enforcement personnel to unincorporated communities within the Fifth Supervisorial District.
These four additional deputies will be strategically placed at Central Station in San Bernardino, focusing on areas identified as priority zones for crime prevention and proactive policing efforts in the unincorporated communities of San Bernardino, and Colton. Two deputies will be assigned to targeted patrol duties, concentrating their efforts in the community of Muscoy.
Supervisor Joe Baca, Jr., shared, “In addition to the deputies we’ve already placed in our unincorporated communities of Bloomington and Rosena Ranch, we’re further reinforcing our commitment to safety by adding more deputies in our district.” Supervisor Baca, Jr, further emphasized “Additional deputies in Muscoy means we are really stepping up for our underserved neighborhoods, especially where it’s needed most. It’s about making sure everyone, no matter where they live, feels safe and looked after.”
Implementing additional law enforcement resources in these areas highlights the Supervisor’s responsive and proactive approach to community safety. The decision to enhance law enforcement comes in response to community feedback.
“This is not just about increasing law enforcement numbers; it’s about making a tangible difference in the lives of our residents,” Supervisor Baca, Jr. added. “We are committed to creating a safe environment where families can thrive, businesses can grow, and communities can flourish. Together, we are making our district a safer place for everyone.”
Residents can expect an increased police presence in the coming weeks, along with continued efforts to engage the community in these safety initiatives.
