The Guam Police Department (Template:Lang-ch) is the law enforcement agency in the United States territory of Guam. The department has jurisdiction across the entire territory, except for areas covered by the port, airport and military bases, although the Guam Police Department does have authority over military dependents on base, due to the fact that civilians cannot be charged under the Uniform Code of Military Justice.
The police department is headquartered in the Guam Police Department Building in the Tiyan area of Barrigada,[1] and operates four precincts.[2]
History
The Guam Police Department was created in 1949. Prior to this, law enforcement on Guam was handled by the U.S. Navy administered Guam Insular Guard and the civilian run Guam Insular Patrol Force.[citation needed]
