WhiteBear (Poland)

In Poland there is a kind of "Municipal Police" (Straż Miejska) - translated directly "City Guards".

They are unarmed, and have less power than the police. They take care of parking issues (tickets), vendors (checking the licenses, etc.), and minor offences (like for example too noisy parties in the middle of the night).

Do other countries have 'chengguan'?

Two vendors sell merchandise outside the stadium prior to the UEFA EURO 2012 group C soccer match Spain vs Republic of Ireland at Arena Gdansk in Gdansk, Poland,  June 2012.
