What power does a rent-a-cop have on public street while working as security say for a movie industry on a set. I am talking about those guys that have cop cap on, maybe holster with a gun and either off-duty pd or retired with bike that a general public might mistaken for real police bike. They are working for private company and are not in any uniform that would clearly identity them as police officer. No police badge, proper uniform etc.
So what power do they really have except for obvious ones like citizen arrest and calling black and white.
