Since May 1st, Richmond Police Officers have proactively confiscated 13 firearms from our streets through proactive policing efforts. These firearms were recovered because our officers are out every day and every night working to keep Richmond safer.
Each firearm taken off the street has the potential to prevent violent crime, save a life, and make our neighborhoods safer. Behind every recovery are officers who put themselves in harm’s way to protect our community and ensure Richmond remains a safer place for everyone.
The Richmond Police Department remains committed to reducing gun violence through proactive policing, strong community partnerships, and an unwavering commitment to public safety. We are proud of the work our officers do every day and thank our community for continuing to partner with us to help keep Richmond safe.
