Serenos of Madrid Finally Receive Uniforms After Centuries
An 880 man police sereno corps in Madrid has acquired its first official uniform after four centuries on duty. Serenos, who once cried the time and weather through the night, patrol streets, awaken residents for trains, and guard homes while awaiting cabinet changes, rely on voluntary contributions. They wear blue jackets with livery, and serenos in large districts may earn small sums from occupants while others receive modest monthly stipends.
