The turnover ceremony was held at the Northern Police District (NPD) on Wednesday, June 19.

Malapitan expressed his gratitude to Lacuesta for his unwavering partnership with the city government.

"It has been a fruitful two years working with Col. Lacuesta. I have nothing but praise for him. Mataas ang morale ng kapulisan dahil sa kanyang pamumuno nitong nakaraang dalawang taon at nagpapasalamat tayo sa kanyang tulong na sugpuin ang krimen sa lungsod (The morale of the police force has been high under his leadership these past two years, and we are grateful for his help in combating crime in the city),” he said.

He also pledged full support to the leadership of Doles to ensure the continued effectiveness of existing programs.

"Welcome to the City of Caloocan, Col. Doles! Inaasahan ko ang iyong husay at dedikasyon na pamunuan ang CCPS, ngunit kung meron akong isang maipapangako sa'yo, ito ay ang buong suporta ng pamahalaang lungsod (I expect your skill and dedication in leading the CCPS, but if there's one thing I can promise you, it's the full support of the city government). I am looking forward to working with you,” Malapitan said.

The city mayor reaffirmed his commitment to a holistic and fair approach in implementing public safety programs in the city, including addressing criminal elements and ensuring police accountability.

"Patuloy nating titiyakin na walang puwang ang kahit anong krimen sa lungsod ngunit kasabay ng ating suporta sa kapulisan ay sisisguraduhin ko rin  na hindi natin kukunsintihin ang anumang pang-aabuso mula sa kanilang hanay," he said.

The event was attended by city government officials, officers from the police force, and Northern Police District (NPD) director Brig. Gen. Rizalito Gapas.
