17 Adorable Photos Shared By The Reykjavik Metropolitan Police In 2017

Having one of the lowest crime rates in the world, the streets of Reykjavík aren’t exactly known for being super mean.

With a lack of bad guys to chase, the Reykjavík Metropolitan Police set up an Instagram account in the summer of 2012 to show some of the every day things their police officers get up to.

Now that 2017 has ended, we thought it ideal to pick 17 of our favorite photos shared by them in the past year. Enjoy!
