The Hawai‘i County Police Department launched its newly redesigned website yesterday. A year in the making, this is the first time the website has been updated since 2011.
The new website, which is easy to use on a smartphone, tablet or laptop, features sections on:
- An events page of police outreach efforts.
- FAQ page featuring frequently asked questions.
- History of Hawai‘i Police Department.
- K9s of Hawai‘i Police Department.
- HPD’s Police Memorial Wall and bios of our fallen officers.
People can also easily find out how to obtain a police report, background check, request an active shooter presentation or station tour, as well as how to request a special duty officer.
The new website also features a Crime Map, provided by City Protect. At any time, members of the public can use the map to see what crimes have occurred in their neighborhood during a time frame of their choosing.
The department’s old website domain, hawaiipolice.com, will go down for maintenance once the new website goes live and will come back online a few days later as an archived media release site featuring the department’s media releases dating back to when the website first launched in March 1999.
