Pittsburgh Police Cuts Staff Between 3-7 A.M., No Longer Respond If Not ‘In-Progress

https://www.dailywire.com/news/pitts...ress-emergency

Calls not considered “in-progress emergencies” will be assigned by dispatch to a telephone recording unit. The city’s website states, “Creation of an enhanced Telephone Reporting Unit (TRU) operating from 7-3 a.m. daily, including weekends. Dispatch will assign reports to the TRU for calls that do not require an in-person response by officers. TRU will NOT be assigned to any “In Progress” call where a suspect may be on scene, any crime where a person may need medical aid, any domestic dispute, calls with evidence, or where the Mobile Crime Unit will be requested to process a scene.”

In addition, between 3 and 7 a.m., when reportedly far fewer 911 calls are made, no desk officers will be present at the six police stations in the city. Instead, call boxes linked to 911 have been installed. During some overnight shifts, there may be only 22 officers to cover the entire city.


Love this ****.

Doesn't sound like a big change at all when you read the whole article.


So basically, if you get robbed or something and the criminal is already gone, you're SOL and the cops won't be doing much to try to help you, if anything. Sounds like what's been standard practice for 20+ years now.

And how exactly are dispatchers determining which calls have evidence and which ones don’t?

We pretty much have this in Chicago, car gets stolen, call 311, and do a report over the phone, your business gets looted and trashed, call 311 and do a report over the phone, you got the **** beat out of you by numerous offenders, two minutes ago, call 311 and do a report over the phone.

Also, because of the shortage of police officers in Pittsburgh, officers are working 10hr days.

I moved out of Pittsburgh 9 years ago. It was a clean, beautiful city. It’s a shame what democrats have done to it-crime, homeless encampments, lack of policing
