His duties involve the exercise of discretion in the performance of the functions of the government, and are not of a merely clerical or manual nature. employees, agents, or subordinate officials, of any rank or class, who perform public duties in the government or in any of its branches shall be deemed as public officers.

A public servant works in any department of state or territory government. Police are a department in state/territory government that receives funding from tax dollars.
