A boat hitting a dock is a police investigation… But… Kidnapping extotion, bank fraud, wilful damage criminal trespass, invasion of privacy and Major building code infractions cannt be looked at…. Police today…. are not paying attention…. Remove the term police… Assign them a more appropriate name please.
I never saw the word ‘police’ once. It said ‘an investigation’. You don’t have to be a police officer to conduct an investigation on a matter.
Speeding!!
It shouldnt need to be investigated. The rope broke an walla. Damage done .. go ahead keep wasting tax payers money
