Did any police officers actually turn up, or just PCSO’s?

What is the difference between a PCSO and a police officer? PCSOs do not have powers of arrest, cannot interview or process prisoners, cannot investigate crime and do not carry out the more complex and high-risk tasks that police officers perform.
