SDCCD PD Welcomes New Sergeant - Louis Zizzo

Sergeant Louis Zizzo started with the San Diego Community College Police Department on Friday, March 30, 2007.

Sgt. Zizzo is a native San Diegan and comes to us with 13 years of experience with SDPD. His first 3 years were at Western Division, 10 were at Mid-City Division and last 6 months were at Eastern Division before joining the SDCCD Police Department.

On a personal note, he is a first generation Italian-American, more specifically Sicilian.  He is bi-lingual and still travels to Italy yearly to visit family.

He states that he is very happy to have come over to the SDCCD Police Department. “I know that I am going to be a very valuable asset to our department and look forward to working with everyone.”

Please join us in welcoming our new Sergeant to the Department and the District.
