Early this morning, around 4 a.m., the Bells of Freedom rang throughout Loveland, marking Veterans Day with a powerful reminder of the courage, sacrifice, and unwavering commitment of those who served our nation.

Veterans hold a special place within the Loveland Police Department, where more than 20 percent of our members proudly served in the United States Armed Forces. Among them, Chief Doran, a West Point graduate who dedicated a decade to serving our country in the United States Army.

Today, we recognize and thank the veterans throughout our Loveland community. Your service, sacrifice, and dedication helped protect the freedoms we enjoy, and your contributions continue to strengthen the community we call home.

To our LPD colleagues who once wore the uniform in service to our nation and now wear another in service to Loveland, thank you. The leadership, discipline, resilience, and commitment you bring to our department leave a lasting mark on those around you.

Pictured here, some of our LPD members who served our country. Many more veterans proudly serve within our department, and we are grateful for every one of them.

To all who served, thank you. We honor you today and every day.

Veterans Day was originally called Armistice Day, marking the end of World War I. The ceasefire took effect at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month in 1918, which is why we honor veterans on November 11. 🇺🇸 Tomorrow, join us in remembering those who served.

Our deepest condolences go out to Agent Graham’s loved ones and the entire law enforcement community. We are heartbroken and thinking of their family, both blood and blue, during this incredibly difficult time.

[City of Lakewood, Colorado @LakewoodCOgov]

Our hearts are heavy today as we mourn the tragic loss of a @LakewoodPDCO agent who was killed in the line of duty. Our thoughts are with their family and loved ones, as well as the three other agents who were injured and are now recovering.

[Pueblo Police Department @PuebloPolice1]

The unsung heroes of law enforcement? The support teams! From dispatchers to admin staff, they keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes. Their hard work allows officers to focus on protecting and serving our communities. Thank you for all you do!

1st presented by Sir Robert Peel in 1829, community policing began as an idea that every community member shares responsibility for preventing crime. Nearly 200 years later, that philosophy continues. Find training here: https://t.co/6GORJQMcY9

Designed by students, driven by SROs. This is how we do. 😎🚔

Five students from Thornton high schools won our first Design the Shield contest, and their artwork is now on the patrol cars our school resource officers drive to campus every day!

Last week, we celebrated these talented students and their families at #ThorntonPD headquarters. Stay tuned, we’ll be featuring each student designer over the next few days. 👀

🚗 Drowsy Driving Prevention Week 😴

Getting behind the wheel while tired can be just as dangerous as driving impaired.

Before you hit the road, make sure you’re well-rested. If you feel tired while driving, don’t push through it. Pull over somewhere safe and take a break.

Officer Alijah Halliburton did not come from a police family. He had no intentions of becoming a police officer after college, so how did he end up in uniform and not just liking it, but in his words 'loving it' along the way?

Ride along with Officer Halliburton as he shares his story, including a connection to a certain NFL quarterback star that dates back to their days at the University of Wyoming.

The Blue Envelope Program

At the Loveland Police Department, every interaction matters.

For many people, a traffic stop feels inconvenient. Sometimes, stressful. For others, including individuals with autism or other communication differences, it can quickly become overwhelming.

That’s why we’re excited to offer the Blue Envelope Program.

This simple program helps drivers keep important documents together while discreetly letting an officer know they may benefit from a little extra time, clear instructions, or a different communication approach. Better communication reduces stress, creates greater understanding, and supports safer interactions for everyone involved.

We know many families in our community include someone with unique communication needs. This program offers one more way to build trust and strengthen the partnership between our officers and the people we serve.

If you or someone you know could benefit from the Blue Envelope Program, stop by the Loveland Police Department Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., or ask any Loveland police officer for one during a non-emergency contact.

Sometimes, the smallest resources make the biggest difference.

Cooking with a Cop🍅 🧑‍🍳 👮

Douglas County Sheriff’s Office School Resource Office Burriesci recently put on his apron, that of course has a badge on it, at Sedalia Elementary, joining students for a special "Cooking with a Cop" class!

Thanks to the school’s incredible sustainability program, they had fresh tomatoes and basil right in their garden to make grilled caprese sandwiches.

Together with the students, our deputies took orders from Deputy Burriesci, cleaning, chopping, marinating, and assembling some truly delicious results.

Grazie to Sedalia Elementary for having us and for reminding us that community, cooking, and connection make the perfect recipe! 💙

[Loveland Police Department @PoliceLoveland]

Justice. Kindness. Humility.

Three words. One commitment. Every day.

Behind the badge, beyond the uniform, and throughout our community, these values guide the work our officers do. From the moments everyone sees to the quiet acts of service few ever notice, the mission remains the same: serve with integrity, treat people with compassion, and lead with humility.

We don’t get every moment perfect, but we strive for excellence, showing up, doing the work, and hoping to make a difference.

Because public safety means more than enforcing the law. It means educating, earning trust, and building relationships.

It matters, Loveland. You deserve it.
