A
Hi,
I'm
community
resource
officer,
kurt
krueger,
with
the
ames
police
department
here
today,
to
give
you
a
tour
of
the
ames
police
department.
We
are
currently
in
the
ames
police
department's
24
hour
lobby
area
so
essentially
is
if
you
go
right
through
those
doors
you'll
be
on
the
north
side
of
city
hall,
where
you
see
the
police
cars
so
anytime,
you
need
to
file
any
kind
of
police
report
or
get
any
kind
of
records
information
from
our
department.
You
would
enter
in
through
those
doors,
and
this
would
be
would
be
where
you
come
into.
A
A
As
you
come
into
our
administrative
side,
this
room
you'll,
see
here.
This
is
what
we
call
our
family
services
room.
This
is
a
room
that
we
can
use
to
take
reports
from
people,
it's
a
great
room.
If
we
have
multiple
people,
we
need
to
talk
to
at
one
time
or
if
they
have
children
with
them-
small
kids,
that
gives
the
area
for
the
smaller
individuals
to
walk
around,
but
it's
also
big
enough
to
hold
multiple
people
to
have
a
nice
little
meeting
as
well.
A
With
so
this
is
our
evidence
lab.
As
you
can
see,
this
is
where
patrol
officers
and
our
detectives
work
throughout
the
day
if
we
need
to
process
any
kind
of
evidence.
So
if
we
need
to
work
on
getting
fingerprints
dna
any
anything
related
to
an
investigation
that
we're
working
on.
This
is
a
lab
that
we
can
come
into.
There
are
tons
of
different
materials
and
things
cameras,
bags,
supplies
scissors,
flashlights
rulers,
tape,
measures,
different
colored,
glasses
cameras.
A
Basically,
like
I
said
this
is
just
our
lab.
To
sum
it
up
to
anything
that
we
need
to
try
to
figure
out
evidence
for
a
crime
all
right
from
the
lab,
we'll
go
back
out
into
our
administrative
hallway
here
and
we'll
work
our
way
down
the
hall
past
more
of
the
investigators
offices
and
some
of
the
command
staff
and
we'll
show
about
one
of
our
briefing
rooms.
A
A
So
this
is
our
briefing
room
for
investigations.
So,
every
day
when
the
detectives,
our
criminal
investigations
division
comes
into
work,
they
sit
in
this
briefing
room
here
and
they
go
over
all
the
cases
that
happen
overnight
and
the
day
before
and
they
discuss
what
cases
they
need
to
work
on
and
follow
up
on.
This
is
also
another
meeting
area
that
we
can
meet
as
a
unit
to
discuss
cases
or
anything
that
we
have
going
on
a
couple
things
I'll
talk
about
so
as
far
as
equipment
goes,
since
we
are
on
the
criminal
investigation
side.
A
A
A
Also
I'm
in
here.
We
have
some
video
equipment
over
here.
So
these
are
the
investigators
body,
cameras,
there's
actually
a
monitor
over
here.
That
shows
our
interview
room,
which
is
what
we're
going
to
head
into
next.
So
another
interrogation
slash
interview
room,
whatever
people
want
to
call
it
so
come
on
along
we'll
show
you
that
room.
A
So
this
is
the
interview
room
that
I
was
discussing,
that
you
saw
on
the
camera
camera's
up
here
in
the
corner
that
we
saw
on
the
monitor
in
the
other
room.
So
again,
this
is
something
we
come
in,
and
investigators
can
take
reports
from
people
or
we
can
interview
suspects
witnesses
or
any
people
that
we
need
to
talk
to.
As
far
as
the
case
goes
so
come
on
along
we'll
keep
moving
along.
A
So
this
here
is
the
back
haul
to
our
police
department,
this
office
area
in
here
this
is
the
door
that
leads
to
our
emergency
communications
division.
So
anytime,
you
call
9-1-1
or
you
call
the
ames
police
department,
non-emergency
number
people
behind
this
door
in
here
they're
the
ones
that
are
going
to
be
on
the
other
end
of
that
phone.
Answering
all
your
questions,
getting
the
help
that
you
need
come
on.
A
Along
so
we're
right
back
where
we
started
as
you
can
see,
so
that's
our
administration,
administrative
and
criminal
investigation
side.
Now,
the
other
side
of
the
building
that
we're
going
to
show
you
next.
This
is
our
patrol
division,
where
all
the
patrol
officers
are
going
to
go
so
come
on
along.
A
So
this
is
the
first
part
of
the
hallway
to
our
patrol
division.
As
you'll
see
we
have
lockers.
Each
locker
is
designated
to
each
of
our
patrol
cars
and
our
parking
officers-
cars
cars
lockers
excuse
me-
will
have
extra
supplies.
These
are
pbt's
for
our
vehicles.
Extra
paper
extra
bullets,
rain
coats.
So
we
keep
each
squad.
Car
you'll
see
in
a
little
bit
here,
but
we
have
an
aed
for
each
squad,
car
and
they're
not
being
used
when
it
gets
really
cold
out
or
really
hot
out.
A
A
As
you
can
see
here
so
every
day
when
the
patrol
shift
starts
the
beginning
of
their
shift,
they'll
come
in
they'll
sit
here
with
their
command
staff.
All
the
officers
that
they're
there
for
the
day
they
discuss
everything
that
happened
from
the
last
shift
to
the
times
they
came
in.
A
So
that
way
they
need
to
know
if
there's
any
particular
areas
that
we
need
to
focus
on
any
cars,
we
need
to
look
out
and
any
people
that
we
need
to
look
out,
and
then
we
also
discuss
any
kind
of
follow-up
that
the
patrol
officers
have
to
do
or
need
also,
if
there's
any
other
special
project
that
the
command
staff
wants
to
work
on
for
that
shift,
they
discuss
it
in
here.
We
also
have
mailboxes
typical
office
things.
A
This
is
also
called
the
emergency
operations
center.
So
if
there's
a
major
disaster
like
when
the
ratio
hit
this
last
summer,
this
is
where
all
the
city
departments
come
together
and
they
plan
and
get
the
city
back
on
track.
So
over
here
is
all
of
our
body
cameras.
So
every
officer
is
issued
a
body
camera
when
they
station
them
over.
Here.
In
our
briefing
area,
they
do
not
go
home
at
night,
so
they
stay
in
here
they
charge
and
they
can
download.
A
Also
back
over
here,
you'll
see
a
couple
computers.
This
is
also
an
area
where
officers
can
come
in
and
work
on.
The
computers
make
phone
calls.
Officers
also
come
in
here
and
they
take
break
so
they
can
eat
their
lunch
in
here,
breakfast,
whatever
they
need
to
eat.
I'll.
Give
you
a
quick
idea
of
some
of
the
gear
that
we
wear.
Each
officer
is
issued
gear
by
the
city,
there's
a
little
bit
of
variance
as
you
can
see.
So
this
is
where
I
keep
my
ballistic
vest.
A
A
A
So
let's
keep
on
going
back
out
in
the
hallway
here,
as
you
can
see,
there's
a
couple
more
offices
back
here,
as
well
as
on
the
other
side
of
the
room
there,
as
we
were
going
around
again,
there's
some
sergeants
offices
over
here.
Our
mental
health
advocate
julie,
saxon.
She
works
back
here
in
my
office
is
also
back
in
here.
So
these
are
just
typical
offices
that
are
in
any
building.
So
let's
go
check
out
some
of
our
evidence,
stuff.
A
So
we're
going
to
come
into
our
back
hall
down
here,
so
this
is
where
our
evidence
lockers
are
going
to
be
kept
and
anything
that
we
need
to
process
evidence.
We
keep
it
back
here.
So
as
you'll
see
this
door
that
we
just
passed,
this
is
that
gets
into
our
evidence,
volt
mega
door.
We
have
two
evidence,
technicians
that
work
and
then
now
here
these
are
all
of
our
special
evidence,
type
lockers,
all
the
evidence
lockers
the
way
that
they
work
they're
only
one-sided.
So
you
open
it
up.
A
I
can
put
whatever
evidence
I
need
to
keep
in
here.
I
put
it
in
no
matter
what
the
size
is.
Then
I
would
push
this
button
it
locks,
and
now
you
can
no
longer
get
to
that
evidence
from
this
side.
That
way,
the
chain
of
custody
is
kept
and
only
evidence
techs
can
take
it
out,
but,
as
you
can
see,
there
are
different
size,
lockers
for
different
size
items
and
then
down
on
this
end.
Here
you'll
see
the
silver
looking
one,
so
we
also
have
a
fridge.
A
A
We
have
multiple
different
drug
testing
kits
so
essentially
it
kind
of
looks
kind
of
like
this
here,
so
I
can
put
any
kind
of
substance
that
I
think
it
is
so
this
one
here
particular
one
is
for
checking
to
see
if
something
is
cocaine
or
not,
so
we
can
put
a
little
bit
of
the
white
powdery
substance
rock
substance
into
here.
In
these
little
tubes,
we're
able
to
crush
them
up,
shake
them
up,
and
this
is
considered
a
field
test.
A
So
this
would
tell
us
right
away
if
the
colors
change
like
this,
that
it
would
be
positive
for
cocaine
in
there
and
then
once
officer
is
done
with
this.
They
actually
we
send
the
believe
substance
down
to
the
dci
lab,
which
is
in
ankeny.
That's
the
state
lab
to
confirm
everything,
so
there's
multiple
different
ones.
We
can
do
for
that.
A
A
A
A
Lots
of
different
size
bags,
here's
a
little
bag.
We
place
evidence
in
here.
We
write
everything
in
there
and
we
write
kind
of
who
put
it
in
there
to
keep
that
chain
of
custody.
So
you
want
to
make
sure
that
nobody's
tampering
with
stuff.
So
you
put
it
in
here
you
rip
this
tag
off
you'd
seal
it
down,
and
this
is
some
of
the
stickiest
nastiest
stuff.
So
when
you
try
to
pull
this
off
it
rips
half
the
bag.
So
that
way,
you
would
know
that
nobody
tampered
with
that
bag.
A
So
there's
just
different
sizes
of
bags
that
we
use
for
that
particular
stuff
in
here
again
just
more
supplies.
These
has
a
lot
of
different
boxes
that
we
use
for
different
guns
and
things.
So
if
officers
we
collect
a
lot
of
guns,
put
them
in
guns.
We
can
strap
them
down
with
zip
ties
to
make
sure
that
they're
safe
when
the
evidence
texts
are
handling
them,
make
sure
they're
not
getting
damaged
or
broke.
A
You
will
see
we
do
have
different
organizations
within
our
community
that
donate
stuff
for
the
homeless,
so
these
here
are
some
that
we
can
hand
out
these
have
different
clothes,
blankets.
Things
like
that.
We
also
have
two
boxes
down
there,
that
officers
can
grab.
It
has
a
to-go
bag
in
there
that
has
like
socks,
underwear,
toothpaste,
deodorant
some
shampoo,
some
lotion
and
a
couple
of
snacks
that
are
long
lasting
for
some
of
the
homeless
people
that
we
encounter
on
a
regular
basis,
so
we
can
give
to
people
in
need
behind
us
over
here.
A
As
I
said,
this
is
the
back
haul
of
the
patrol
division
side.
So
we
have
a
couple.
Locker
rooms
for
our
staff
down
over
here
you'll
see
a
big
special
looking
door.
This
is
our
armory,
where
officers
can
work
on
their
firearms
in
any
kind
of
armory
type
items
that
they
need
to
be
addressed.
Next,
we'll
go
check
out
our
booking
area,
all
right,
so
we're
going
to
head
into
our
intoxilyzer
or
our
data
master
room.
A
So
this
room
here
is
a
small
little
room
that
we
use.
Our
booking
area
is
on
the
other
side
of
this
door.
What
this
room
here
is
used
for
one
we
can
interview
people
in
it,
but
the
main
focus
or
job
of
this
particular
room
is
it:
has
our
data
master
for
us.
So
if
somebody
has
been
arrested
for
an
owi
operating
while
intoxicated,
whether
that's
alcohol
or
drugs,
we
bring
them
back
into
here,
and
this
is
the
data
master
room,
so
the
notorious
blow
into
that
machine
to
see
how
drunk
you
are.
A
Next
we'll
go
to
the
actual
booking
room,
which
is
where
you
would
start
with
that
owi
and
then
you
would
end
up
in
this
room,
but
we'll
come
on
out
here
to
the
booking
area.
So
this
is
what
we
consider
our
booking
room
so
anytime
that
you've
been
arrested.
We
would
pull
up
into
our
sally
port,
which
is
what
you'll
see
next
here
we're
kind
of
this
backwards
order,
but
essentially
you
would
come
in
here.
We
would
place
the
arrestee
on
the
bench
over
there.
A
We
would
place
them
in
a
handcuff
so
that
way
they
can't
get
up
and
wander
around.
This
is
the
area
the
officer
could
use
this
computer
to
type
up
any
of
their
charging
documents.
Any
kind
of
paperwork
that
needs
to
be
assessed
or
read
we
use
here
is
a
workstation
there's
a
restroom
in
here
these
belts
back
here.
Typically,
this
is
what
we
consider
a
transport
belt,
obviously
being
handcuffed.
It's
not
a
pleasant
idea
to
be
behind
your
back.
A
So
what
this
transport
belt
does
is
allows
us
to
put
it
on
somebody,
and
then
they
can
be
handcuffed
in
the
front
that
way
they
are
still
in
our
custody.
They
can't
harm
us
or
themselves
and
it's
a
lot
more
comfortable
to
be
handcuffed
in
front
versus
behind
their
back,
while
they're
being
transported
to
the
jail.
A
I
said
we
have
a
restroom,
sometimes
prisoners
are
pretty
out
of
control
and
being
very
irrational
and
they
are
trying
to
harm
themselves.
Obviously
we
don't
want
somebody
to
get
hurt.
So
essentially
we
could.
A
Place
an
rsd
in
here,
so
these
walls
are
all
pretty
padded.
The
floor
is
pretty
padded.
That
way
like
I
said,
if
someone
was
being
very
uncooperative
out
of
control
and
irrational,
we
could
place
them
in
here
in
hopes
that
they
would
not
harm
themselves
or
our
or
us
as
officers.
A
Next,
we'll
head
out
to
the
sally
port
area,
which
is
also
known
as
a
garage,
so
this
is
our
sally
port
area,
also
known
as
a
garage.
This
is
where
we
can
pull
in
two
different
squad:
cars.
Typically,
if
someone's
been
arrested,
we
try
not
to
keep
them
out
in
the
public,
so
we
pull
them
into
here
and
then
we
can
are
able
to
open
the
back
door.
We
go
straight
into
our
booking
area,
which
is
the
area
that
we
just
came
from.
A
A
So
this
is
one
of
our
hybrid
crossovers
that
you'll
see
you'll
know
that
it's
a
hybrid
because
it
has
the
green
line
here.
Obviously,
with
the
being
a
dead
of
winter,
cars
are
going
to
have
a
lot
of
snow
and
ice
on
them
right
now.
We
typically
get
them
washed
about
every
other
day
to
try
to
keep
them
looking
clean,
but
as
far
as
with
the
hybrid
crossovers
they're
fantastic
for
us,
they
actually
get
11
miles
per
gallon
more
than
the
old
versions
of
the
crossover.
So
we
get
about
19
miles
per
gallon.
With
these.
A
A
So,
on
the
back
of
our
patrol
cars,
they're
still
packed
lots
of
different
things
that
we
need
to
carry.
We
have
riot
shields
again.
Here's
a
one
of
our
aed's
lots
of
paperwork
for
our
job.
Obviously,
everything
we
do
has
to
be
very
much
documented.
So
there's
tons
of
paperwork
and
computer
work
behind
the
scenes
that
you
don't
typically
see
police
officers
doing
it's
not
just
driving
around
squad
cars
pulling
people
over
or
catching
bad
guys
and
girls.
There's
lots
of
paperwork
in
our
job.
A
So,
as
you
can
see,
this
looks
pretty
compilated,
so
we
have
a
lot
of
stuff
in
here
that
we
got
to
be
able
to
get
to
in
a
short
amount
of
time.
I
won't
pull
everything
out.
This
is
one
of
our
main
things
that
we
do
use
quite
a
bit.
This
is
our
own
little
csi
lab
tech,
stuff,
so
patrol
officers,
while
they're
out
on
scene,
we
talked
about
in
the
lab,
but
this
year,
if
they
need
to
check
for
fingerprints,
we
can
get
footprints.
A
We'll
take
a
quick
look
on
the
inside
of
the
car
as
well.
A
So
as
we
come
around,
you
see
the
back
seat
of
all
squad
cars,
look
pretty
similar,
it's
kind
of
a
plastic
cover.
You
never
know
what
kind
of
fluids
end
up
in
here.
So
that
way
it's
easy
to
wash
out
and
keep
some
clean
and
sterile
for
the
next
person.
There
is
a
kind
of
a
cage,
a
plexiglas
type
item,
to
keep
the
patrol
officer
safe
from
any
suspect
they
arrested.
That
would
try
to
harm
them
or
nobody's
able
to
get
out
of
the
backseat.
A
Obviously,
there's
no
door
handles
and
they
could
not
get
up
through
the
front
if
you
want
to
come,
take
a
look
in
the
actual
driver's
seat
here.
So
typically,
the
patrol
car
would
have
a
computer
in
here.
This
officer
is
using
the
computer
at
the
moment,
but
this
is
a
ford
explorer,
so
it
looks
similar
to
what
the
typical
ford
explorer
is.
If
you
have
one
at
home
cup
holders.
This
is
how
we
control
all
of
our
lights
down.
Here
we
have
our
radios.
A
We
have
scanning
devices
up
here,
you'll
see
where
our
body
cameras
are
the
same
as
what's
in
the
car.
So
this
here
is
a
display
screen
that
shows
the
cameras
that
are
on
our
car
and
showing
the
outside
in
the
backseat
of
our
squad.
Car
we
have
up
in
the
front.
Our
dash
is
a
radar
machine,
so
if
officers
are
running
radar,
which
is,
if
they're
out
looking
for
speeding
enforcement,
this
tells
them
how
fast
the
patrol
car
is
going
and
how
fast
the
other
cars
that
they
are
trying
to
monitor
are
going.
A
So
we
can
document
their
speeds.
There
are
patrol
rifles
and
shotguns
in
every
vehicle
and
that's
kind
of
the
quick
outlay
of
what's
inside,
of
a
police
car.
This
is
actually
the
entrance
to
the
ames
police
department.
So,
if
you're
on
the
north
side
of
city
hall,
this
is
where
you'd
enter
into
between
the
two
police
bulbs
and
you
go
right
into
those
double
doors
and
that'd
be
right
where
we
started
off
with
our
tour
of
the
day,
thanks
for
coming
along,
always
remember
here
we're
here
to
help
you
day
or
night.
