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.
Officers respond from whereever they are at the moment. They might be eating lunch, driving down the street or submitting evidence at the department. They do not sit around at the PD like the firefighters do.

Depends on the circumstances. However, I'm not sure that you are describing the ideal police candidate anyway...
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.
Share Answer: 
I don't know if you should. You can certainly call the police and talk to them about your circumstances.
