Police is the person who keep the people safe by catching thives,bugglars.The specific duties of a police officer largely depend on where they are located. In large cities, officers are usually assigned very specific job duties or will be assigned to a fraud, murder, drug-trafficking, or rape unit. Each unit has a specific goal, and the officers within the unit are trained solely for that objective. Police officers in rural areas rarely have the opportunity to specialize in any given area of law enforcement. Due to the tendency for lower crime rates and the relatively small population, officers in townships, co-ops, and other rural settings handle any or all law enforcement tasks, from simple traffic infractions to child protection or murder cases.

A police officer's primary duty is to maintain public order. Patrol officers on foot, in a car, or even on horseback spend their days dealing with individuals who break the law. There are the typical traffic violations that need to be dealt with of course, but police officers also receive calls to investigate burglaries or other serious crimes. Police officers may give a warning or citation or, if the offence is serious, they have the authority to arrest and detain a suspect. Precarious circumstances may arise if the suspect carries a weapon, takes a hostage, or flees in an attempt to resist arrest. Police officers, however, are trained to defend both themselves and possible victims. Ultimately, they keep streets and neighbourhoods safe, even if that safety requires them to engage in situations where they may have to put their lives on the line.
