The
narcotics unit is responsible for proactive
drug enforcement. These are the department’s
primary undercover officers. They provide
active enforcement towards street level users
and dealers affecting our community, by obtaining
and serving search warrants and arrest warrants.
Their job includes finding and arresting
those individuals responsible for supplying
the drugs that end up on our streets. The
narcotics unit works closely with the probation
and parole departments, along with other
narcotics units from police departments surrounding
Cypress. They monitor known narcotic traffic
areas and target activity within our neighborhoods
and business areas. They provide drug enforcement
training to patrol officers about new trends
and issues regarding drug use and sales.
These officers also teach drug classes to
students in local schools and citizens of
the community through the Cypress Police
Department’s Junior Academy and the
Cypress Police Department’s Citizen’s
Academy.
