David Torres
Born and raised in Sacramento, California, David earned a Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice from California State University, Sacramento before embarking on his career in law enforcement with the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department.
During his time in patrol, David served the Las Vegas community across multiple commands, including South Central Area Command (SCAC), Enterprise Area Command (EAC), and Convention Center Area Command (CCAC). His tactical expertise and dedication to officer safety led to an assignment with the Advanced Officer Skills Training (AOST) Unit, where he took charge of the Defensive Tactics Instructor Program and established himself as a subject matter expert in use of force. Complementing his instructional background, David holds a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Black Belt, bringing practical, real-world experience to defensive tactics, force application, and articulation.
David has proudly represented the rank and file as an LVPPA Delegate and member of the Board of Directors. He looks forward to continuing his advocacy for the union's membership as a member of the LVPPA Executive Board, dedicated to protecting the rights, benefits, and safety of the men and women of Metro.
