The city has a new Police Commissioner, Commander Israel de Jesús García Mosqueda (Vallarta en Línea)

In his first meeting with local security commanders, the commander assured that "Puerto Vallarta will have a trained and equipped police force with different specialized branches within the corporation that will come to support the different security issues and for the good of the citizens."

He also announced that in the near future the new patrol cars required by the municipality to reinforce its presence in the neighborhoods will be delivered, once the negotiations, which the former Commissioner, Captain Luis Viveros started at the time, are finished.

In addition, the government of Mayor Luis Alberto Michel together with the commissioner will work so that Puerto Vallarta will once again become the number one municipality in security perception according to the INEGI survey.

Finally, the municipality will have units and elements specialized in the attention of cases of violence and emergencies for the gay community, with the objective of responding to the needs of LGBTQ people who have an important presence and social incidence in Puerto Vallarta, being this the first police corporation in Mexico to have such equipment and a focused area.
