These intriguing photographs have captured real-life crime scenes as taken by the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) in the early to mid twentieth century.
The collection of images showcase both the amusing times had by the police force since 1925, as well as the more disturbing instances that have had to be dealt with.
One chilling image shows two men slain over their spaghetti at an Italian restaurant in an alleged mafia hit, while another captures a murder victim who had his throat slashed in his car in 1929.
Meanwhile, a 1955 photo shows Hollywood actress Maila Nurmi comically posing in a jail cell - after surviving a murder attempt when a man broke into her apartment.
Another humorous photo from the police force's archives, estimated to hold one million photographs, shows an LAPD officer administrating a field sobriety test to a woman in 1958.
The fascinating series also includes a later photograph from 1970 - which shows a member of the Manson Family arriving for their arraignment. As members of Charles Manson's cult, several of the so-called Family committed murders at his request.
Working it! A 1955 photo shows Hollywood actress Maila Nurmi comically posing in a Los Angeles prison cell in her iconic Vampira ensemble - the character she was made famous for. The actress was at the police station following a break in at her apartment where she was terrorized by a man for up to close to four hours. Thankfully, the beloved star managed to escape and rushed to call officers with help from a neighboring shop owner. Maila made her name as Vampira in Plan 9 From Outer Space and had fame as a horror TV host. She was living modestly when she died from a heart attack aged 85 in 2008
Girl power! This image taken in 1968 is thought to show a group of women being trained with revolver guns, as on the far left wall reads a sign saying: 'Night Combat'. The selection of females appear well dressed as they point their weapons towards the ground, seemingly waiting for an instruction from their superior. Los Angeles Police Department was the first to swear in a female officer, hiring Alice Wells in 1910. In the late 60s and earlier 70s, when this photo was taken, women were much more involved with the police as they were needed to serve undercover when dealing with prostitution and illegal drug sales. The public accepting the female presence was evident in the popularity of TV shows such as Policewoman and Get Christie Love
On her merry way! An LAPD officer can be seen in this photograph administrating a Standardized Field Sobriety Test to an seemingly tipsy woman on July 6, 1958. However it appears to not end well for the woman as she begins to stumble after being asked to walk in a straight line. Field sobriety tests, commonly referred to by officers as FSTs, are a series of exercises designed to test balance, coordination and the ability to do two things at once. They aim, in theory, to discover whether a person is sober enough to continue driving. Such tests can involve a one-leg-stand, a walk-and-turn, and alphabet recitation.
Dark times: Not all the photographs within the police department's collection are amusing as some hint at the more chilling times throughout history. One grisly image, above, showcases a lifeless body seemingly thrown across the water and found lying underneath an eerie-looking bridge over the Los Angeles River on February 17 in 1955. Numerous police officers can be spotted standing next to the body as they assess the horrific crime scene
Gunned down at dinner: One chilling picture shows two well-dressed men slain over their spaghetti at an Italian restaurant in August 1933. Police officers at the time believed the hit had been organised by the mafia - a group formed of Italian-Americans who dealt in illegal dealings. Organised crime at the time still had a large hold over the city with the LA family of the American mafia reaching its peak strength in the 1940s and early 1950s under the reign of Jack Dragna. Dragna was an early influential Los Angeles figure who rose to prominence through bootlegging, political, and gambling endeavors
Horrific: This photograph captures the chilling scene after a middle-aged man had his throat slashed while he was in his vehicle. The incident took place on March 11, 1929, in Los Angeles. During that time crime was at a high as the backwater town transformed itself into a gleaming city following the First World War. But as thousands flocked to the area to enjoy their dreams and desires, it meant more crime for the officers to investigate
Robbery? At the time of this picture being taken on July 23, 1932, police believed this death to be a result of a jewelry store heist gone very wrong. The image illustrates the work of the officers as they stand away from the body and try to decipher what occurred. With blood trickling away from the lifeless body towards where the police appear to stand, the photograph shows the bloody horrors experienced by some of the people in Los Angeles during the early 20th century
Somber: There are also crime scene photographs from the Hollywood Hills home of legendary comedian Lenny Bruce following his overdose in 1966
The fascinating series also includes a later photograph from 1970 - which shows a member of the Manson Family arriving for their arraignment. As members of Charles Manson's cult, several of the so-called Family committed murders at his request
A truck full: In this photograph, a vehicle is captured carrying a huge load of seized marijuana on October 11th, 1935
This victim lying dead in a yard, discovered on July 13, 1930, was recorded as John Doe as their real name was unknown
A chilling photograph of a dead body taken on January 11, 1932. There are an estimated one million photographs within the LAPD archives. Many of these images come from Special Investigations Division
The collection includes everything from forensic shots of bank robbery notes through to morgue portraits, crime scene images and crime re-enactment stills - although police are unaware what this shot from 1947 depicts

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
