Message From Police Commissioner Charles Gardner 

It is my pleasure to welcome you to the official Yonkers Police Department Website. Our interactive site provides a forum to learn about the many programs and services we provide to the community. The YPD is the largest municipal police department in Westchester County and is a NYS Accredited Law Enforcement Agency.

 We deploy a community policing philosophy and partner with the public to address crime and disorder with a priority focus on 5 main areas: Guns, Gangs, Drugs, Quality of Life and the Search for Wanted Persons.

 The hardworking and dedicated men and women of this agency are committed to providing quality police services to the people who live, work, or visit our city. I hope you enjoy your visit to our web site and please feel free to contact us with your comments, suggestions or concerns. May God bless you and keep you safe.

Important Information When Calling 911: Wireless or cellular telephone calls made to "911" are answered by the New York State Police who in turn ask the caller for their specific location and connect the caller to the local Police Department responsible for that area. This causes a slight delay in dispatching help to a location and therefore when possible use a wired home phone and not a cell phone to call "911". If you use a cell phone to call the Yonkers Police Department for an emergency dial: 377-7777.
