iPhone SE also has that. It'll disable the fingerprint on next unlock if you hold the power button for 5 seconds or mash the power button repeatedly (like 5 times in 2 seconds, therabouts). Pretty handy to know these things not only for police but if you get mugged. Everyone should know how to lock their phone out
