Have already seen this with other stolen property with other PDs across the country.
- "It's too risky"
- "not valuable enough"
- "could be dangerous"
- "can't prove your stolen item is where the GPS says"
- "can't dispatch an officer or detective just because you have a GPS location"
etc etc
- oh_sigh 3y agoDon't forget: "Are you sure you didn't let them borrow the car?"
- sitkack 3y agoI had someone steal my keys with an airtag on them in Seattle. Cops said they were going to send someone after making me file a police report, screenshots of Find My, etc. Call them an hour later, "oh yeah, no officers responded, we are too busy, good luck!" and this was on a slow-ass sunday around Greenlake. Recovered the keys myself. Good thing they have a 355M budget. https://www.seattle.gov/documents/Departments/FinanceDepartment/22adoptedbudget/SPD.pdf https://www.seattle.gov/documents/Departments/FinanceDepartm...
- icelancer 3y agoSPD does much the same for me. I had my laptop tracked using Prey software (prior to Airtags) and they refused to send cops to a location I personally scouted out, took pictures of, and identified my equipment. When I told them I might confront the thief on my own, they strongly cautioned against it. Basically they aren't interested in doing their job, or anyone taking action themselves.
