Policy
A detailed CAPRS report is required for all assaults on police officers or when officers die in the line of duty.
If an officer is injured or dies in the line of duty, any other reports including those from the injured officer’s personal physician shall be completed. A Supervisor’s Report of Injury and Request for I.O.D. Leave Determination (if applicable) are to be completed by the officer’s supervisor. Other reports, including those from the injured officer’s personal physician, shall be forwarded to MPD Human Resources.
Officers who are victims of assault shall have the injuries photographed. The Identification Division is available if necessary.
