Traduzco un parte policial del español al inglés. En una parte debo colocar el grado del carabinero (policía chileno) que realizó dicho parte. Es un "cabo segundo". En el Glosario Internacional encontré "police sergeant" para "cabo" a secas, o sea, obviando "segundo". Ojalá puedan ayudarme, muchas gracias de antemano.

deputy constable/sergeant
In England police hierarchy is undoubtedly different to that in Chile. The organisational chart below shows the chain of command of an English police force. Both sergeant and constable are used frequently in English(UK).

Second Corporal
El tema es que en inglés las traducciones tienen que ver con la marina o las fuerzas aéreas (aircraftman, seaman).
Pero en este caso el policía se encunetra en tierra. Te propongo esta opción, pero seguramente otros colegas podrán aportar más ayuda.

second sergeant
The Carabineros make a distinction when referring to an officer, but in US police departments, even though grades of sergeants exist, the title does not reflect it (the payroll office would list him as "Sergeant II" but he would be referred to as Sergeant Smith). I found a few instances (via Google) of "second sergeant" in military contexts (see below).
An option would be to retain the Spanish title, putting in parentheses "second sergeant."

Note from asker:
| No creo que sea "sargeant" porque en Carabineros existen tambi�n los "sargentos", que no deben confundirse con los "cabos" �ste es el orden de los grados: General Director General Inspector General Coronel Teniente Coronel Mayor Capit�n Teniente Subteniente Suboficial mayor Suboficial Sargento 1� Sargento 2� Cabo 1� Cabo 2� |

patrol officer second class (third class)
Given Rodrigo's explanation, the position of "cabo segundo" appears to be the lowest rank within the force. Thus, depending on the police department, it could be any one of the following options (at least here in the US):
1) Patrol Officer
2) Patrol Officer Second Class
3) Patrol Officer Third Class
4) Probationary Patrol Officer
