Raccoon Police Department

Raccoon Police Department is a fictional law-enforcing that appears in Capcom's Resident Evil survival horror franchise.

History
The station is located in the heart of Raccoon City, the precinct was formerly an art museum until the late 1980s, when it was purchased by the police for its ample parking space. In 1996, The precinct developed the S.T.A.R.S. (Special Tactics And Resque Squad) team in order to combat terrorism. In late July 1998, the S.T.A.R.S. team were dispatched into the Arklay Mountains to investigate a series of murders in the region. During the t-virus outbreak in September 1998, Leon S. Kennedy, Claire Redfield, and other survivors sought refuge at the precinct during the citywide outbreak.

The precinct was lavishly decorated with art purchased by Brian Irons, and several storage rooms were occupied primarily with undisplayed items. The building contained two entrances to the city's sewer system; one through the kennels, and one through a secret room connected to Chief Irons' office. These sewer entrances allowed travel to Umbrella's secret, underground lab.
