Deployment
around the clock

On duty 24/7

The police officers of the security service are on duty around the clock.

On patrol in the "neighborhood"

The district officers are important contacts for people in their immediate residential and business areas.
Deployment
in the air, on the water and on the road

Police flying squadron

Helicopter pilots with high-tech on board provide valuable support, especially at night.

Water police

The Water Police Directorate (WSP) of Duisburg Police Headquarters is not only responsible for one city or district, but also for all navigable waterways in North Rhine-Westphalia and, in some places, Lower Saxony.

Police divers test new underwater tool

Jens Reuter from LAFP NRW is responsible, among other things, for the police divers who tested new underwater tools.

Highway patrol

The highway police is not an independent police authority. The five police authorities of Cologne, Düsseldorf, Dortmund, Münster and Bielefeld are responsible for police measures on the freeway network in North Rhine-Westphalia.
Deployment
in special situations

Riot police

The riot police are requested for special operations if the force requirements exceed the capabilities of the district police authority conducting the operation or if the special equipment and experience of the riot police is required.

Special units in extreme situations

Their everyday work includes hostage-taking, kidnappings, extortion and threatening situations. The protection of hostages, threatened persons and abductees always has top priority.

Well protected

The NRW team with bodyguards from Cologne and Dortmund won the first national comparison competition.

Sports applications

The National Concept Sport and Security (NKSS) and the National Committee Sport and Security (NASS) form the basis for the joint security work of the police, local authorities, clubs and associations, fan projects, transport companies and other network partners.
Deployment
with animal support

NRW police service dogs

Faithful companions, intrepid helpers and true super noses.

National riding team

If necessary, the NRW police rely on animal support from the state equestrian squadron in special emergency situations.
