Law Enforcement Torch Run 2026

April 9 @ 6:00 am - 10:00 am

Law enforcement agencies, including the Yuma Police Department, within Yuma County are participating in the Law Enforcement Torch Run 2026.

The relay will take place on Main Street, near the roundabout, in San Luis, Arizona Thursday at 6 a.m., with each agency carrying and passing the “Flame of Hope” along the route.
