A police department is a law enforcement agency that is responsible for maintaining public safety and order within a specific jurisdiction, such as a city or county. Police departments are typically headed by a chief of police or other senior law enforcement officer, and they are staffed by sworn police officers who have the authority to enforce the law and make arrests.
