What should I do if I hear that kids my age (13) have drank shots and so have their friends? I think their parents supplied the vodka. I don't know if I have the confidence or sufficient evidence to report them. (To be continued)

what does the first responding office do when they arrive at a crime?

Asked by cutiepie18 over 12 years ago

Every scene is different. If the crime is in progress, stopping the criminal from hurting others is the first priority. If the crime is not in progress (or once the criminal has been stopped), providing aid to injured people is the highest priority.

Asked by nicholas about 12 years ago

You are a child. Your father has excercised reasonable discipline. If you call the police for this, you are the only person who runs the risk of being charged with anything (false report of a crime.)

Sounds like you've got a lot of growing up to do.

Asked by Jay over 12 years ago

I'm not sure if there is a question in there. However, you have not described anything criminal. Law enforcement does not investigate civil issues.

Hello. I live in an area policed by a county department. But my village has its own small police department of 6 or 5 men. Apparently, it's staffed 24/7. How could shifts possibly be organized to make that possible? (They answer their own calls.)

Asked by Name over 12 years ago

I don't know. You should pop in to the local department, introduce yourself and ask. They might even have a citizens academy where they go over all of the department's functions.
