Not sure of the actual rules of engagement but something along the lines of any threatening move with a lethal weapon, raising a gun with the intent to fire etc.

Personally I wouldn't want the job,

Immense pressure, immense responsibility and knowledge that your every move will be scrutinised. Demonised by people in the area and usually by the press most of which have no concept what is involved in shooting a weapon.
