Security Guards hold no special provision in PA. Teachers and ANY school employee does though. Assault a janitor and you are hurtin', a security guard and it is no more than a "mistomer"

Think of this on a level format:

There is a police officer - highest level.

330 people are security police officers - middle level.

There is security guard - lower level.

Basically it means that a private security officer may detain and arrest for misdemeanors on his private property. He is a police officer for all intents and purposes on property. Off the property his powers vanish.

People in general do not know what a 330 officer is, but the point is that a person should respect anyone in an enforcement position. Yes, assault on a security officer carries the same in Michigan. Their badges say "security police" on them. They also must identify themselves if they are writing a ticket or arresting someone. "under act 330 I am doing such and such"

330 officers are trained by the state and have a form of academy that they go to. They get training on laws, enforcement, and weapons training. Some carry weapons, some do not. IMO they ALL should be carrying. In darrell's case he could, but his college chooses not to. Unfortunate, because darrell deals with drugs and fights and anything in between.

All of this, in my eyes makes darrell just as much a brother of mine than any other officer. I also think he should be verified on here, he knows as much as anyone else, if not more, about the laws in michigan. He has never gave false info on here, and never been wrong on ask a cop yet. (well his opinions may vary). :D

Those who think less of 330 officers should be ashamed of themselves and need to look at their own shortcomings before others.

All of this info is true. I might add this as what I have to say for my arrests.

By the power granted to me under Michigan Act 330 Section 1080 I am placing you under arrest for the purpose of ______________. At this time I will mirandaize you (only if need be). BLAH BLAH BLAH.

So can any company get 330 security? Will we be seeing 330 at Toys R Us or can only certain places get 330? And again, how can you tell that a person is 330?

[Orleander]

I knew it!!! So the guy at Toys R Us walking around with a roll of duct tape trying to tape up kid's pants is more than likely a 330. I'll make sure to stay out of his way as he cruises the Barbie aisle. LOL

I was wondering if a private gated community could hire 330s.

[darrell]

All departments othern then School's, College's, Federal Buildings and Power Plants do not have to be registered with the State of Michigan but all privte land, malls, hospitals and shopping centers must register with the State in oreder to be a 330 department. The places I mentioned in the first set are granted power under this act but still must obtain cert. from the 330 schooling which is 18 weeks, and 3 days a week. 330 Schools usualy run Monday, Wednesday and Friday whereas the Reserve Academy runs Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday.

Where I work, we would probably call that guy a 290...
