Policy
All MPD purchased equipment shall be marked with the full Minneapolis Police designation before issue/use. Markings may include Mpls Police or MPD, if space or design of the equipment does not permit full Department lettering. MPD Stores will provide uniform markings and advise units of the best marking for equipment type. If equipment is purchased/shipped directly to a unit, the commander shall ensure that the items are brought to MPD Stores for Department marking before use. This directive does not apply to standard ‘police’ labeled clothing.
