Local News: Armed with radios, Citizens on Patrol help Belmont police | police, daley, hargate : Gaston Gazette: "They have been trained to provide a number of services like assisting a stranded motorist, directing traffic around a wreck or patrolling at banks, schools and shopping centers. They don't carry weapons and they can't enforce the law, Daley said.
'They're armed with a radio,' Daley said.
The COPs will eventually be able to write tickets for handicapped parking violations, which does not require the signature of a sworn officer because it is a civil citation, Daley said."
