English:
The
Los Angeles Police Department
(LAPD) is the police department of the city of
Los Angeles, California
. With over 9,600 sworn officers and 3,000 non-sworn staff, covering an area of 473 square miles (1,230 km2) with a population of more than 3.8 million people, it is the fifth largest law enforcement agency in the United States (behind the New York City Police Department, California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, Chicago Police Department and the Federal Bureau of Investigation).
The LAPD has been heavily fictionalized in numerous movies and television shows throughout its history. The department has also been involved in a number of controversies, mostly involving racial animosity and
police corruption
