Police officer Emoji

People

A person wearing a dark blue or black police uniform, complete with a peaked cap and a badge. The design features a neutral expression, focusing on the authority and professional attire associated with law enforcement personnel.

Usage Context

Used to discuss legal matters, report crimes, or signal the presence of authority. It is frequently sent as a warning about speed traps or police sightings. When users want to be more specific, they often pair it with 🚓 or 🚨 to add urgency to a message.

History

Added in Unicode 6.0 in 2010, the police officer was part of an early push to expand the emoji library to include common professions. While originally released as a gender-neutral icon, later updates added gender-specific variants to better represent the diversity of emergency responders in real-world service.
