Middleton Night Patrol

The Middleton Night Patrol is the official police organization operating out of Middleton, USA.

Background
Although some version of the Night Patrol has existed in Middleton since the early post-colonial days of the town, the Night Patrol became officially established as a police organization in the early 20th century. The motto of the Night Patrol is "NOMINIS NOSTRI EST VIGILANTER. NOMINIS NOSTRI EST IUSTITIA. NOMINIS NOSTRI EST DEFENSIO", which translates to "our name is vigilance, our name is justice, our name is defense".

The Middleton Night Patrol is often criticized for its high volume of open cases, and have been labeled by some as "incompetent". While technically speaking, the Night Patrol has one of the worst case-solving records in the country, the statistic is skewed by the fact that Middleton has one of the heaviest crime rates.

The Night Patrol keeps a regularly updated blotter on its website to provide the citizens of Middleton with information, updates, and warnings about ongoing crimes.
