[QUOTE="HillsideDesolate, post: 3990254, member: 51737"] It depends. They all have the power of citizens arrest for felonies, but that may be against policy. If they are a 3rd party company, they usually don't have much and can just observe and report. If they are in house they typically are "agents of the property owner" and have the same power a property owners has when it comes to removing people from the property. Being bound to private property they can do some things things a police officer can't, like the ability th to conduct searches without a warrant and physically removing people from the property for any reason. Just like how you can toss someone out of your house. Hospital security is a different level and can go hands on and restrain people for medical.p or behavioral purposes, unlock.cars at the owners request, traffic stop on property ticket and boot vehicles and travel over the speed limit with lights and ssirens. Also assaulting hospital security is a felony and opposed to a misdemeanor with regular security. Private corporate and executive protection officers may be carrying msgs and can shoot you dead if needed, likewise the armored car guys are "private security." and Isn't really depends on employer, Fleet and location.
