1 On November 1, Sichuan Mianyang City first batch of urban public security traffic police officers were officially equipped with guns to work. From now on, some traffic police in Mianyang urban area will be equipped with 92G pistols to carry out preliminary handling of public security and criminal cases in accordance with the law.
At the gun distribution ceremony, Chen Mengyuan, the captain of the Mianyang Public Security Traffic Police Detachment, made a request: "We must be good at using guns and dare to use guns at critical moments."
According to reports, as a front-line practical police, traffic police carry out preliminary handling of public security and criminal cases in accordance with the law. In the past, after an emergency occurred, traffic police often found it difficult to control the scene as soon as possible, and the police station or subsequent patrol special police needed to come to support it. In recent years, many road emergency and criminal cases have occurred in many places across the country. This requires that on the basis of maintaining road traffic safety and smoothness, the public security traffic police must also have the ability and skills to maintain road security and stability and crack down on and deal with emergencies. After armed patrols are equipped with guns, traffic police can also crack down on the crime scene as soon as possible.
At present, the Mianyang Municipal Public Security Bureau and the Mianyang Municipal Public Security Traffic Police Detachment have required every gun-equipped police officer to carefully study various gun use management regulations, strengthen skill training, and improve practical combat capabilities. In daily armed patrol work, the first batch of urban traffic police will strictly implement the requirements for the use of weapons and strictly abide by the four safety principles of gun use to ensure the safety of gun use.
