Not everything our officers do is related to dangerous weapons and firearms. Our training makes us among the most skilled officers in the force when it comes to delivering immediate medical aid so we are often called upon to assist at calls like RTCs - CO116

A big part of MO19 is the vehicle supplied to us by @BMW. Here we can see one of our vehicles out in the county assisting @LRPC_MO8 in searching for a vehicle that made off on the Redwoods Lights Track in Penge.

Airsoft can be an exciting sport but poor understanding of firearms law could land you in serious trouble.

Recently we've had to disband several games organised by AirsoftingUK that put players at risk of prosecution and we are advising players to avoid attending future events

Officers last night were taking part in joint operation headed by @LRPC_CID to counter a string of aggravated burglaries in parts of the BCU. Several arrests made, working with our colleagues in @LRPC_ERPT and @LRPC_MO8; coordinated by ground commanders and @LRPC_Control

Earlier our twitter was accessed by a malicious party making abusive comments at members of the wider GTA community, they also announce we would be closing (with some questionable spelling). We are not closing!

Sorry for any inconvenience

We received a fresh new batch of uniforms this evening! Here, we can see Chief Superintendent Ryan, Inspector Spencer and PC Knapp conducting an armed patrol around Legion Square, following a recent Panic Button from a paramedic. @LondonRPCV - CO60

One of the images, captured by one of our body cams! Such as amazing piece of training that will assist us in future operations, delivered by our own C/SUPT! @LondonRPCV - CO60

Not very often I get to bust this bad boy out. Used the Remington 870 for breaching purposes on a house raid a few days ago. Not a very common tactic but used when a shock factor is necessitated and explosive entry isn't deemed appropriate - CO53 #BigBoomBoomStick

21:20 - All Trojan assets called to reports of Active Shots Fired. After a loss of eyes, male was spotted by CCTV. Upon armed challenge, he shot towards officers. Not the best idea when you're being red-dotted and have Glocks Pointed at you 🤔

We can't release full details at this point but a word of advice. Don't charge at the officer pointing a Glock at you while you're holding a metal baseball bat

[LRPC: Metropolitan Operations 19 @LRPC_MO19]

It's not all guns and violence with us, all of us are first and foremost Police officers and will deal with any offences we come across. -A/Insp O'Connor
