What We Do
Port Authority Police officers cover a wide array of responsibilities. Our officers must be prepared to engage a terrorist target at a moment’s notice while having the grace to respectfully connect with a runaway child.

The members of the Port Authority PBA are saddened to learn of the passing of retired PAPD K9 Ikon, E.O.W. 12/24/2025.
Ikon served in the PAPD K9 Unit from 2015 through 2021, with his partner Port Authority Police Officer Alex Baez. Ikon and Alex trained together at Lackland Air Force Base, San Antonio, Texas and received their federal certification in explosives detection.
Ikon and Police Officer Baez served the people of New York, New Jersey, and the millions using Port Authority facilities daily with courage and a commitment to protecting all.
Ikon developed a meningioma tumor that forced his retirement in 2021. He lived a wonderful retirement and always remained faithful to Alex and his wife Mallory. Unfortunately, the tumor led to Ikon's passing.
Ikon was a 12-year-old German Shepherd born on November 10, 2013, in Germany.
The Port Authority PBA thanks Ikon for his selfless service.
Always Honored, Never Forgotten.

In particular, the dedicated personnel at the Jersey City Journal Square PATH facility, ranging from conductors to engineers to the Safety Department, PAPD officers, and many others— who all came together in the true spirit of the season to support children in need within the surrounding communities.
Through this collective effort, PAPD Marine Corps Association was able to donate five full boxes of brand-new, packaged toys.
The PAPD Marine Corps Association extends its sincere gratitude to everyone who contributed to making this initiative such a success.
Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and a prosperous New Year to all.

Rest in Peace, Delaware State Police Trooper Matthew "Ty" Snook, E.O.W. 12/23/2025.
Trooper Snook was working a security detail at a Delaware Division of Motor Vehicles office when an active shooter incident occurred. The shooter shot Trooper Snook who then shielded a person next to him as the shooter fired again, hitting Trooper Snook a second time.
He was 34 years old, a Corporal Grade One, and served with the Delaware State Police for ten years. He is survived by his wife and 1-year-old daughter.
Ty, rest in the Lord's eternal embrace. Always Honored, Never Forgotten.

A 20-year-old man was assaulted and suffered lacerations to his face on a PATH train and again on a platform in the World Trade Center PATH Station. The alleged suspect, a 33-year-old Jersey City man, fled the station.
Port Authority police officers from the PAPD WTC and PATH Commands responded and began a canvass to locate the suspect.
PAPD WTC Command Police Officer Dave Ferrara located the suspect on surveillance footage boarding a PATH train to Hoboken. He provided information and a photo of the suspect to the PAPD PATH Command in Jersey City.
The PAPD PATH Command was able to locate the suspect in Jersey City exiting a PATH train in the PATH Exchange Place, station. Police Officers Daniel Kacsmar and Basil Lewis apprehended the suspect at the Exchange Place New Jersey Light Rail station where the suspect attempted to push a 33-year-old female to the tracks.
The suspect now faces charges in New Jersey and New York.
This was not the first time the suspect was arrested by the PAPD. In June, 2023, the suspect was arrested for slashing a person at Jersey City's Journal Square PATH Station. He also has a criminal history that includes indictments for multiple crimes.
Great work by the PAPD PATH and WTC Commands.

Thursday, December 18, 2025, World Trade Center;
The 9/11 Memorial and Museum welcomed viewers to participate and listen to firsthand accounts, experienced by three first responders on 9/11/2001. On the panel, retired PAPD Detective Will Jimeno was joined by his rescuers - Retired NYPD Emergency Service Unit Detectives Patrick “Paddy” McGee, Sr. and Scott Strauss.
Will Jimeno remarked on what drove him to stay alive while he fought to be rescued along with his partner and mentor PAPD Sergeant John McLoughlin, while Paddy and Scott commented on how they never once thought about leaving John and Will trapped even when their own lives began to hang in the balance.
Attending the event were Port Authority Police Officers Bobby Pelc, a PAPD Bus Terminal Command PBA delegate and Patrick McGee, son of Detective Paddy McGee and a member of the PAPD Bus Terminal Command.
The story of these first responders is one of amazing heroics and selfless courage that will forever be embedded in the history of the World Trade Center and the events of September 11, 2001.
