LIEUTENANT MARC LUCIO PROMOTED TO CAPTAIN
The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority
(Metro) has selected Marc A. Lucio to lead Transit Services Bureau (TSB).
TSB is the bureau tasked with providing police services to Metro buses, trains,
and properties, throughout Los Angeles County.
Captain Lucio began his law enforcement career in 1992 as a
reserve deputy assigned to Pico Rivera Station (PRV). He graduated from
the Academy in 1995 and served as a deputy at Men’s Central Jail, PRV, and
Operation Safe Streets Bureau (OSS).
In 2006, Captain Lucio promoted to sergeant and was assigned
to East Los Angeles Station, Court Services East Bureau, PRV and OSS before
promoting to lieutenant in 2012.
As a lieutenant, Captain Lucio’s first assignment was TSB,
where he was a watch commander, service area lieutenant, and the operations
lieutenant. During his time as a lieutenant, he also worked at
Compton Station, Emergency Operations Bureau as the Tactical Planning
Lieutenant, Aero Bureau as the operations lieutenant, and most recently, as the
Division Aide at Special Operations Division.
Captain Lucio has always been connected to his community and
in 2018, was elected to the City Council in the City of Chino. He
currently serves on several city boards and committees.
Captain Lucio has a bachelor’s degree in Criminology from
the University of La Verne and a master’s degree in Leadership from the
University of Southern California. He is married to his wife Sandra, who
is a lieutenant on the Sheriff’s Department and together they have a blended
family of six children. In his off-duty time, Captain Lucio enjoys
spending time with his family, working out, and serving his community.
Captain Lucio is among several captains to be promoted under
Sheriff Alex Villanueva’s new captain selection process, which in this case,
involved a panel of Metro Executives. Once all of the finalists were
interviewed, the panel chair made a recommendation to the Sheriff, who made the
final decision in appointing a captain.
The Sheriff’s
Transit Services Bureau is currently the fifth largest transit law enforcement
agency in the country. This bureau has been part of Los Angeles County
transit policing since 1990.
