Lancaster, which has never had its own police department, will hire eight 'peace officers' to help L.A. County sheriff's deputies respond to crimes.

L.A. County Sheriff Robert Luna addressed a physical altercation between a woman and a deputy outside a Lancaster grocery store seen in a body camera video.while responding to a domestic violence incident with his fiancee as an example of how the police department could help. The home where the killing occurred had had previous domestic disturbance calls, he said.

“It occurred to me that that was to some extent our fault. There had been previous calls. We never went and talked to them. It could have been a simple matter of education and this never would have happened,” Perris said. Now after an incident, police might respond to the scene and speak with the couple in hopes of averting future incidents, Perris said.

The city’s first police chief, Armalin, started his career with the Sheriff’s Department. Most recently he served as the police chief of Sierra Madre before coming to Lancaster to run the city’s Public Safety Department.
