FWIW here is a quick Google Custom Search engine configured to match
only pages that mention a http://schema.org/PoliceStation (in
Microdata/RDFa syntax):
https://www.google.com/cse/publicurl?cx=013484121852858951051:7izsuwnbm-w

These things take 10 seconds to make, though they're only as good as
the data out there. For a microdata syntax example see
http://www.wolverhampton.co.uk/listing/112143-west-midlands-police/

It might be interesting to get structured markup onto the official
sites that list police stations, and perhaps from there import into
Wikipedia via Wikidata?

cheers,

Dan
