Members of the Roman Legion actually acted as a sort of combination civil police/military armed force. Certain officers of the Legion were charged with the responsibility of enforcing Roman Law, these officers held the rank of Centurion.
Interesting historical tidbit: As a symbol of their rank and office Centurions wore a small breast plate over the center of their chest. It is this Centurion breastplate which has come down through the centuries - reduced in size - and become a smaller version. This badge of office has evolved into the badge (or shield) which present-day uniformed officers wear on their left chest.
