In a historic deployment, 30 LAPD reserve police officers, as part of the largest international contingent of officers, embarked on an unprecedented mission to support security efforts at the 2024 Summer Olympics in France. The team, led by Sergeant II Jonathan Johnson, OIC of the Reserve Unit, was joined by a combined delegation of over 40 law enforcement agencies (including 17 representatives from LASD) that worked alongside French authorities to ensure a safe and secure event.
