So I'm trying to show my partner a video of a police dog chasing a suspect on youtube, and I cannot find my favourite one..... It's one I believe from a police helicopter and shows the dog chasing a suspect and taking them down. I appreciate that's pretty generic as a description, but it's been posted on here a fair few times and yet I cannot find it..... Anyone up for a YT treasure hunt to help me find it?

Does anyone know whether 617 squadron, when it's put back into service, will still be known as 617 squadron or will it be given a different squadron number? (I do hope it remains as 617 though). Cheers.

I am a Criminology & Criminal Justice student at the University of Portsmouth, with a keen interest on the history and development of Women in British Police Forces; Women only recently, when 'The Equal Employment Act of 1970' could do more demanding roles within the police force, such as Detective work. June 1983, Alison Halford became the first female Assistant Chief Constable in British Police History, Mrs Halford was the Assistant Chief Constable for Mersyside Police retiring in 1992; she bought a Sexual and Discrimination Claim against her former Chief Constable, Mr Kenneth Oxford. The claim was withdrawn in 1992 due to a settlement between both parties. 1997:…

Hello Police Specials, Yesterday was "eventful" to say the least! Short story, I got randomly (un-aggravated) assaulted by a kick in the face and didn't do anything back of course because it would be bending the law and perhaps breaking it because 2 wrongs don't make a right, so I just walked away. But I am now not very secure when I am walking so is there any legal self defence weapons you could use in an attack like this? I am aware of CS and Pepper spray but I don't think that they meet the needs. So what self-defence weapons could I use to defend myself? I thought of an ASP but obviously it is illegal to buy, sell, lend and have possession of one in public, so may…

When I did my standard driving assessment I was told that 3rd gear @ 30mph was best for fuel consumption. However my 2007 1.8 Petrol Ford Focus digital display tells me that mpg is best at 5th doing 30mph. I would have thought 4th was best if anything, not 5th!?? Thoughts?...

Welcome to my Personal Page! The Ride to Conquer Cancer Presented by Silver Wheaton benefiting BC Cancer Foundation, is a two-day cycling journey, through Canada's Pacific region taking place June 14 and 15 2014. I will find it to be a challenge in a number of ways, but with my bike, my helmet, and your generosity, I am hoping that we can make a real impact! My beautiful wife Whitney (picture here with me) works at "The BC Cancer Agency" and it is because of her working with cancer patients daily, that I thought I need to make a difference and help in anyway I can! I have set my goals and am determine to make a small difference in helping the battle against canc…

On the back of the now locked topic and away from the 'legal' side of things... what odd punishments did your school give out, or what was the strangest... We got made to do 'litter duty' if it was more than the standard forgetting your homework type offence... once our head master went ballistic at the state of the local area, and the school packed us all in the hall and cancelled a mornings lessons, everyone got a wooden spatula and a pair of gloves and a classroom, they all had to be removed of chewing gum.... weirdest two were the essay 'life inside a ping pong ball', 2 sides, and one physics teacher instead of lines where you could cheat he made you write 1, 1000…

Hello all, Found this neat informative film about the implimentation of the Unit Beat Policing system all the way back the swinging 60's. Some say UBP was the birth of modern policing - lots of investiment in technology and a move away from the traditional foot beat system. Interesting little film explaining how the system worked - with the introduction of the 'unit' comprising of home beats, response cars and intelligence gatherers for a dedicated local area, with all the parties involved talking the talk about what a wonderful idea it is and how they much they prefer that an area that used be covered by 15 cops is now covered by 10. :D If you are into your police hist…

Hello PoliceSpecials, I am USB (Real name not included for security reasons!) and I am a 17 Year old male with a huge interest in becoming a PCSO (Police Community Support Officer) and then hopefully joining the Police Force itself. My general hobbies in life would be Airsoft, Computers and going out with friends (not causing much trouble! ) And I noticed this forum as I am a huge forum user to do with security and pentesting. I currently study A-Levels (One being ICT) in Sixth form and I hope to apply next year. I've done work experience with the Police force back in the summer of 2012 and am doing another lot of work experience this year with the Community Wardens…

So Eurovision 2014 has just kicked off with a man running in a hamster wheel. Anyone else watching? I will add a poll in a moment so people can vote for who they think will win. Actually I'll leave the poll until all the countries have performed.

For those not in the know a 'bucket list's is a list of goals you would like to achieve before you die, or in this case before you retire. As we're an inclusive bunch on here this thread is open to everyone in the Police family, but please keep your goals police related. These can be goals relevant to your current position or goals relevant to where you want to be. E.g. Currently a special but want to be regular etc. So, I'll start us off: 1. Give a ticket out for every offence on the traffic offences list. 2. Catch a burglar in the act. 3. Become a public order medic.

http://www.nottinghampost.com/Police-arrest-man-ask-mother-lift-station/story-21066902-detail/story.html A NOTTINGHAMSHIRE police officer had to ask a prisoner’s mother for a lift to the station – after they locked their car keys in the boot of the police car. The officer was called to an address and arrested a man for assault. Police seized “vital evidence” from the suspect’s bedroom, placed it in the boot of the car before realising the car keys were inside too. The officer’s gaffe was revealed today in Police magazine, and according to the report: “The officer with his head bowed knocked sheepishly on the suspect’s door, asking kindly whether his mum could transport…
