[3] During the fall of 1986, López Feliciano announced the creation of a new police unit to improve security for tourists visiting the port of San Juan aboard cruise ships [4]Lopez-Feliciano's management of the concept controlled crime and maintained the attractiveness of tourist areas. [5]
As the island's police chief, López Feliciano participated in the rescue operations and investigation of the Dupont Plaza fire that took place on 1987 New Year's Eve. [6] [7] [8] [9] During López Feliciano's administration of the agency, the Puerto Rico Police Department (PRPD) created the Puerto Rico Joint Forces of Rapid Action (FURA) bureau, and this unit was made up of several PRPD divisions, including offshore boat teams and divers, search-and-rescue (SAR), special weapons and tactics (SWAT), criminal intelligence, and the Air Services Division (ASD).
