Marking an important milestone in the implementation of Oaklands comprehensive public safety strategy, Mayor Ron Dellums today announced Anthony Batts as Oaklands new Chief of Police. Batts brings nearly 30 years of experience as a member of the City of Long Beach Police Department, where he has served as Chief for the past seven years. Under his leadership, the crime rate in Long Beach fell to its lowest level since 1975, and officer-involved shootings have decreased by 70 percent.
