Every police department around the world has a unique uniform signifying them as police. And usually one big indicator is either a windbreaker that says POLICE on it, a Kevlar vest with POLICE or if it's the case of a foreign language, the word POLICE will be in that language. For example, in Columbia, the police that patrol the Jose Chavez International Airport have jackets saying Dirandro on them, meaning they are the police of the airport. Or at Fumacino Airport in Rome, the police wear jackets with POLIZIA on them.
