While driving in my development today I saw a police car I have never seen before. The vehicle was a brand new SUV with Federal Protection Police written on the side. I have never heard of this group, so I came home and looked them up. Here is the job description -- Federal Protective Service security and law enforcement careers include positions as criminal investigators, inspectors, and police officers. Federal Protective Service police officers perform the following duties as uniformed, armed law enforcement officers respond to crime and make arrests; conduct preliminary criminal investigations; protect life and property on federally controlled property and capture and detain suspects; respond to counter-terrorist operations, demonstrations, threats, and/or natural disasters. Federal Protective Service police officers may patrol areas on foot, automobile, motorcycle, or bicycle. Officers also apprehend wanted persons on federal property; work with other law enforcement agencies to provide special protection during federal court trials; process criminal arrests by the Federal Protective Service; and present educational programs on workplace violence and crime prevention. Note the word "demonstrations" above. Has anyone seen this type of vehicle in their area?
