The Atlanta Police Department (APD) is a law enforcement agency in the city of Atlanta, Georgia, U.S.

The city shifted from its rural-based Marshal and Deputy Marshal model at the end of the 19th century. In 1873, the department was formed with 26 officers. Thomas Jones was elected the first Atlanta Chief of Police by the city council. The agency is located at: 226 Peachtree St SW, Atlanta, Ga. 30303.[2]

The 1,400+ officer force is currently being led by Police Chief Darin Schierbaum. The city has an authorized strength of 2,000 certified officers, however the department has never reached this level and continues to operate at a significant deficit.
