The case of the two policewomen which ran away from a shooting and left their male colleagues to fend for themselves caused quite a stir in Germany. During the trial they said they were deadly afraid and didn’t see how many shooters there were and from where the shots were coming.
Got in their car and left.
I tried to find an equivalent male example, but every newspaper was writing about this particular case.

- astura 2y agoThis happened during the Uvalde school shooting. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2022/07/13/uvalde-shooting-video-reveals-police-ran-away-applied-hand-sanitiser/ https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2022/07/13/uvalde-sho... It's interesting there was a trial, because in America police have no specific duty to protect the public.
- blub 2y agoThanks for the link. It looks like in your and the sibling poster’s link the police didn’t protect the public because of cowardice and/or incompetence. In the case I link, the trial was about abandoning their fellow policemen in danger, not the public. They probably view things differently when they themselves are affected.
