Police Officer Sworn In
The City of Los Alamitos welcomes a new police officer to the ranks of the Police Department. On September 23, 2010, Officer Samantha Mathias was sworn in as the City's newest peace officer. Officer Mathias was hired as a police recruit while she attended Golden West College Police Academy where she graduated on March 19. Unable to hire her full-time due to fiscal restraints at that time, Officer Mathias remained with the department and began training as a reserve officer until a full-time position became available. The City of Los Alamitos and Chief Todd Mattern is pleased to have Officer Mathias join our staff.
