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?

I have seen them around the Federal Courthouse in Downtown Portland, OR, and around the Federal office building.
I am going to be on the lookout for them.
People might be surprised to realise how many federal agencies have armed agents-- would you believe that HUD has them? They do.
Wow. It appears to be national.
New to the boards, spotted one this morning on the drive to work here in Phoenix and decided to do some searching on the web. each day i'm more and more glad i'm preparing and no one of the blind one's
