	Police - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Police are also responsible for reporting minor offences by issuing citations which typically may result in the imposition of fines, particularly for violations of traffic law.
		Local policing is usually conducted by the police departments at the county, city, township or village level and may range from one person offices (sometimes still called the town marshal) to the 40,000 men and women of the New York City Police Department.
		Police organizations also must sometimes deal with the issue of police corruption which is often abetted by a code of silence that encourages unquestioning loyalty to one's comrades over the cause of justice and treating those who disagree with that stance with contempt like Frank Serpico.

	Metropolitan Police Service - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) (commonly referred to by its former official name of the Metropolitan Police, or colloquially as The Met) is the territorial police force in Greater London, England, with the exception of the square mile of the City of London, which has its own police force, the City of London Police.
		The Metropolitan Police's headquarters are at New Scotland Yard in Westminster, commonly known as Scotland Yard.
		The Metropolitan Police was the second official non-paramilitary police force in the world (after the City of Glasgow Police), and is generally regarded as the first to be organised on a modern civil police basis.

	Metropolitan Police Service - About the Met
		The Metropolitan Police Service is famed around the world and has a unique place in the history of policing.
		Founded by Sir Robert Peel in 1829, the original establishment of 1,000 officers policed a seven-mile radius from Charing Cross and a population of less than 2 million.
		Today, the Metropolitan Police Service employs 31,141 officers, 13,661 police staff, 414 traffic wardens and 2,106 Police Community Support Officers (PCSOs), and, since the realignment of police boundaries in April 2000, it covers an area of 620 square miles and a population of 7.2million.

		There was growing sentiment for a police force on the "London model," a paramilitary organization with uniforms and a chain of command, but the idea was resisted by those who feared that such a "standing army" would constitute a threat to the liberties of Americans.
		Police officers served one- and two-year appointments and often at the pleasure of politicians.
		In addition to policing a vast criminal underworld of street gangs, pickpockets, gamblers, prostitutes and even river pirates, the police department took on many other tasks of urban governance, including licensing steam boilers, inspecting tenement houses and cleaning streets, which they did from 1872 until a street cleaning department was formed in 1881.

	Metropolitan Police Services in South Africa, 2002 - Gareth Newham, Themba Masuku and Lulama Gomomo
		Policing consists of a wide range of heterogeneous tasks; the links between cause and effects in policing are poorly understood; many policing tasks have multiple aims and the final goals are too general to be of much use for the purpose of performance measurement.
		The Johannesburg Metropolitan Police (JMPD) was launched in March 2001 and is therefore the second-oldest of the five metropolitan police departments.
		Research on police patrols in the USA also revealed that officers rarely spend more than 25% of their working time on crime related activities, which was better than the amount spent 10 to 20 years previously, before the public's fear of crime began to escalate (Greene and Klockars, 1991).
