Cheating death and fighting communism: that is how a fellow officer once described our job. It was meant to be funny, but as time went on it seemed all too true.
I spent more than ten years in law enforcement, all of it on the street in uniform patrol. I've been a patrol officer, instructor, sergeant and lieutenant.
Do not report crimes here. Nothing here should be considered legal advice. All opinions are my own.
Ok.
Share Answer: 
I don't know if you should. You can certainly call the police and talk to them about your circumstances.
Share Answer: 
At the scene.
If the caller was believed to have more involvement than just stumbling into a crime scene, investigators might want to interview the person at the PD so the statement can be recorded on video. However, unless the person is under arrest, transporting the subject to the PD must be voluntary. If the subject does not want to go, officers would have to collect the statement on scene.

For what? Walking in public?
If you were intoxicated to the point of being charged with something it is unlikely the officers would have dropped you off at home.

Are you a lot stronger and more fit because of your job?
The best bet is to call your local police recruiter and talk to him or her about the specific requirements in your area. Generally, you apply for the position, undergo a thorough background investigation, go through a series of mental, physical and medical tests and then complete academy training.
Share Answer: 
I'm sorry for your loss. If you contact the investigating agency, they will be able to tell you what the procedures are to obtain the information and documents you need.
Share Answer: 
Yes. Some departments may not allow it, but I know of some that do. Check with the recruiter at the agency you apply to.
