Security Police 19
Security Police 19 : Legal authority of security police: Security police around the world: (8) United States: (8. 2. 3) Los Angeles: Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority - Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority Transit Security Officers are under the full Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department/Transit Services Bureau supervision, uniformed, non-sworn personnel, who serve the MTA (Metro) by providing security for critical transportation infrastructure and internal revenue protection. Transit Security Officers undergo a selection process that is similar to that for police (including an identical background investigation, as well as a psychological review and physical agility test), as well as a 600-hour internal training program, which includes completion of (BSIS) Guard and Firearm training. Many Transit Security Officers have advanced training to serve in specialized functions, such as that of a dispatcher, K-9 handler, rangemaster, or armorer. Furthermore, several officers represent the department in IPSC and USPSA competition through their officially sanctioned shooting team. Transit Security personnel often work in conjunction with deputies of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department's Transit Services Bureau, which has been the exclusive contract provider of dedicated law enforcement services for Metro since 2003. Others include the now defunct Los Angeles County Police and the Los Angeles General Services Police
