A 7-year-old boy called 911 from a locked bathroom while armed robbers threatened his parents.

The boy, identified only as Carlos, told reporters at a news conference that he remained calm during the ordeal because his mother used to make him practice dialing 911 in case of emergencies.

Able to Penetrate Most Body Armor & Ballistic Helmets

The FN Five-seveN® pistol is capable of defeating most soft body armor as well as ballistic helmets.  This info is from the RCMP & the FIIU of Canada who advise organized crime members in Ontario & Quebec and local criminal elements are actively seeking possession of these firearms.

This is the new generation of the WWII Browning Hi Power weapon. The new model is a 20 round pistol made in Belgium that fires a 5.7 mm bullet that will defeat most body armor used by the military and law enforcement today. It brings the type of performance that was previously confined to rifles or carbines.

FN Five Seven Pistol

High magazine capacity: The Five-seveN® comes standard with 20-round magazine.

High stopping power: The Five-seveN® fires the 5.7x28mm SS190 Ball round which reliably penetrates Kevlar helmets and vests as well as CRISAT protection.

High hit probability: The Five-seveN’s® extremely low recoil impulse results in virtually no muzzle climb, thereby facilitating fast and controllable follow-up shots.

From the Internet:
The FN Five-seveN® is Light & Ergonomic: It weighs 30% less than most 9 mm pistols.
Fully Safe: Due to it’s double-action firing mechanism, the Five-seveN® offers no inherent risk of accidental discharge during transportation. Furthermore, all of it’s safety devices are automatically reengaged following each firing cycle.

The Five-seveN® fires the SS190 5.7×28 mm ball round. This projectile will perforate any individual protection on today’s battlefield including the PASGT Kevlar helmet & 48 layers of Kevlar body armor. The SS190’s conventional design allows it to be manufactured on existing production lines and it’s lead-free composition eliminates range contamination. It can be purchased online at www.calssportingarmory.com for $854.

The various stages of police training includes the learning of laws and regulations, the proper steps to resolving a particular issue, becoming an expert administrator and with all these getting a really good workout to maintain a very high physical condition. A DUI Attorney in San Diego added that with all these educational things the police academy maintains a very good time table for the academy and provides there student/officers really good facilities so that they get there objectives in a healthy environment. The all parts of training are really managed and go on with a proper time table.

In the training period the officer learns everything with a routine that builds his every part of personality equally and as per the needs. The requirement of being an efficient police office is that you should be really good in learning and building in those entire departments which are listed above. But police academy is just the place where you can get things what you want; I mean that it all depends on your level of passion. Academy wants passionate peoples to serve the nation and get things easily which are taught or practiced at the academy. In order to prepare new officers the academy makes sure that they provide the police officers the best of facilities they can so that the officers become perfect for the job what they are trained for. It is the place where you will get one of the respective servants of public.

FREEHOLD, NJ – The Monmouth County Police Academy graduated 53 police officers May 18, many of whom will serve as seasonal patrol officers in their respective communities.

For the first time a combined graduation was held for 18 officers who completed the 81st class of the academy’s Basic Course for Police Officers and 35 officers who completed the 36th class of the academy’s Basic Course for Class II Special Law Enforcement Officers.

While the 35 “specials” generally work seasonally during the busy summer months, the remaining 18 will work as full-time police officers in their respective towns.

In her graduation address, Freeholder Lillian G. Burry told the new officers they are now community leaders and role models. “Today, you have earned the right to serve your communities as police officers,” Burry said. “This is a great privilege because there is no higher responsibility.

“You cannot put a price on public service – not because it is an ambitious notion, but because it is so deeply ingrained that its true value is never apparent,” she said. “It is more than each beat that you walk and each shift you complete. It is your reputation, your integrity, your life. I am confident you will succeed because of the training you received here from the county’s highly qualified instructors.”

Monmouth County Sheriff Shaun Golden also praised the new police officers for pursuing a career in public service. “By successfully completing their training, these fine men and women have demonstrated their commitment to law enforcement. I commend them for a job well done.”

Newly appointed Police Academy Director David Morris said the new officers are well-trained and well-prepared to begin protecting citizens in the communities they will serve.

“It is a calling to serve as a police officer,” Morris said. “With that calling comes courage and integrity. These traits cannot be learned at the academy; they come from within.”

Award winners in the 81st class are: Bryan C. Taylor, Merit Award and Physical Training Award; Caryn M. Campanelli and Christopher E. Sibole, Traffic Safety Award; Jeremy Sepulveda, Marksmanship Award and Outstanding Trainee Award, and Caryn M. Campanelli, Academic Award.

Police academies are state specific in their teachings. When considering attending a police academy it is essential to ensure that the school is accredited by the state in which the applicant wants to work. In some states, the applicant has to be hired for a job before they can attend. Some states are the opposite; they want the applicant to have completed the academy before applying for a police position. It is the responsibility of the applicant to understand the requirements for their state.

In North Carolina, many potential law enforcement officers go the N.C. Justice Academy in Salemburg, N.C. to do their training. The school has proven to be a successful training environment for local and state police agencies throughout North Carolina. The academy was purchased in 1973. The academy was so successful, that in 1998 a mirror site was opening on the western side of the state.

To attend the academy, the applicant must complete a basic law enforcement training course first. They must also pass a rigorous background check, physical examination, and screening interview. The goal of the school is to improve the effectiveness, professionalism and problem solving skills of their students. They train over eight thousand students, on average, each year.

Those attending the academy come out prepared to take on the jobs as police officers, sheriff deputies and other law enforcement roles. The campus is large, covering over 100 acres. They have classrooms, dorms, firing ranges, a driving track, computer lab, gym and more. They can provide everything from a full basic police training course, to weekend refreshers and ongoing education opportunities. They also offer some online courses.

The campus also allows other state agencies to use its services to train their personnel. Agencies such as Parks and Recreation, Forest Services and Division of Motor Vehicles periodically use various aspects of the campus to train their personnel. Students report that they enjoy the atmosphere of the campuses. They also appreciate the rural setting both campuses utilize.

Attendees get the opportunity to participate in numerous hands on activities. Three firing ranges offers practice for long and short range weapons training. Students receive instruction on fire arms handling, care and use. Everyone from novice to sharpshooter can learn and hone their skills here.

The driving track is another favorite among students. They get to drive in various weather conditions and practice aggressive and evasive driving techniques. The students can gain confidence in a controlled environment. This unique training improves public safety by ensuring that officers know how to handle their vehicles in any situation.

 

Congratulations Session 112!

Here they are involved with the torch run!

 

I’ve been through the police academy twice. It was the same academy but almost 10 years apart so things weren’t exactly the same. With this wealth of information one of the best tips I can give is to keep your mouth shut and pay attention. The only other important piece of information is to work hard, don’t give up and take it all seriously. If you are told to walk a certain way (never carry anything in your gun hand) or you have to button your coat up all the same, do it. I could go on, don’t wear your watch to PT. Be on time for everything. Bring everything you are told to bring. Don’t try to cut corner or be lazy. This goes for academics or practical exercises.

 

Vt. Police Academy graduates largest class, 42

PITTSFORD, VT — Forty-two new Vermont police officers are due to hit the roads and streets of the state.

The most recent class at the Vermont Police Academy in Pittsford graduated 42 officers in the 91st basic training class, the largest 16-week class in academy history.

Of those officers, eight will be working with the Vermont State Police and six are headed to the Burlington Police Department.

State Police Col. Thomas L’Esperance says that even with the new troopers, his agency is still 24 troopers below its authorized strength of 327.

Burlington Deputy Police Chief Walt Decker tells the Burlington Free Press the city has always struggled to try to reach its authorized strength of 100 officers, with funding for 98.

With the new hires, Burlington has 96 officers.

 
Handcuff Key Bracelet

Handcuff Key Bracelet

Attached are photographs of a wrist band (bracelet) which is being sold by flea markets. You see many people wearing these as I guess they are popular right now. Not all the bracelets have the handcuff keys in them. However, all officers need to be aware of this so you can check prisoners when you place handcuffs on them.

If in doubt, remove the bracelet from the prisoner after placing handcuffs on them and turn in the bracelet to the booking officer when you arrive at the jail. The keys are plastic so they will not show up on x-rays; however, the key can open a pair of handcuffs. With a little practice, one can be handcuffed and still access the key in the bracelet.
