Here is a dose of Brockton. That P.D. has to prioritize its calls unlike years ago. Now some calls such as crashes go unanswered. A week ago this guy driving a wrecker wacks this guy on route 27 just over the line from Whitman into Brockton. Leaves the guy laying in the middle of the road hurt bad. People call us because they wont come. This happens quite often by residents in the area. They had calls that had a higher priority I guess. Well our guys get there and call them and tell them we have a guy really seriously injured who needs an ambulance and we also tracked down the wrecker operator (who I arrested when he was 14 or 15 for DUI, leaving the scene and so on). We had to force them to send a car. We can't investigate a crash in another town like that. Its one thing if its minor and we help people change papers, but when thier is serious bodily injury that another thing entirely. They finally came.
