Gold Coast Cops is an Australian factual television series on Network Ten. It follows the work of police officers from the newly created Rapid Action & Patrols Group (RAP) on the Gold Coast in Queensland.[1] The series was renewed for a second season in November 2014,[2] returning 17 March 2015.[3] The second season experienced a 3-month mid-season hiatus due to the seventh season of MasterChef Australia, however, returned on 2 August 2015 in the new timeslot of 7pm Sundays.[4][5]

In September 2015 media reports emerged that Senior Constable Aaron Minns, who appeared in the program, was suspended from his position and charged with four counts of allegedly assaulting restrained prisoners.[6] On Wednesday 4 May 2016, Minns was found not guilty on all charges, after a trial in the Brisbane Magistrates Court.[7]

In November 2015, it was announced the series would not return.[8]

Plot

Gold Coast Cops follows members of the Queensland Police Forces as they intercept criminal offenders on The Streets in Queensland.

The elite task force is responsible for policing everything from bike gangs and street violence to drug heists and organised crime. Established earlier this year and led by Superintendent Jim Keogh, the unit offers the community a permanent police presence on the Gold Coast.
