F.A.Q.

What is CSPD's jurisdiction?
Capitol Special Police has control on all property owned or controlled by our agency. As well as any property the owner or person in possession and control of the home contracts us to protect.
Can Capitol Special Police work for my city, town, state, or other governmental entity?
Yes, we can work for any governmental entity. Whether it be federal, state, town, city, housing authority, lake authority, water and sewer authority, special taxing district, etc. in the State of North Carolina in certain circumstances. We CANNOT replace, augment, or act as your local police force. We also have the authorization to work on real property owned by or in the possession and control of your governmental entity. For example, the town hall, town parks, any government owned buildings and land, public housing communities, hospitals, and similar areas. This would NOT include any public streets or highways. Nor any private property unless we had a separate contract with each property owner.
Do Capitol Special Police officers drive cars with blue lights and sirens?
Yes. Capitol Special Police officers drive marked and unmarked patrol cars. We use blue lights and sirens the same way that your local police department does.
If a criminal runs off of the property, does this mean that you can't catch him?
As long as the incident started within our jurisdiction, and we are in immediate and continuous pursuit. In brief, we can pursue him as far as the state line.
Where does Capitol Special Police get their authority?
Chapter 74E of the North Carolina General Statutes authorizes the North Carolina Attorney General to administer the Company Police Program and certify Special Police Agencies and Officers. We have authorization to be a Special Police Agency. Through this program and all of our police officers are properly certified by this program.
Do Capitol Special Police officers carry guns and other weapons?
Yes. All Capitol Special Police officers carry sidearms during the performance of their duties. Depending on the task, they may carry them openly while wearing their uniform, or concealed, when in plain clothes. Our officers also carry OC ("pepper") spray and impact weapons. All Capitol Special Police officers train often in firearms and defensive tactics as taught by our state-licensed teachers. In certain special situations, CSPD officers also carry shotguns or rifles.
What can CSPD do for me?
We provide patrol and parked officers, alarm response, business checks, money escorts for merchants, banks, credit unions, and ATM servicing companies. Additionally, we provide executive protection services for VIP's in the Triangle area. We also provide training services to public and private agencies.
