025 Failed Stop
After Jimmy dealt with Dolch Mars's case, he continued to patrol in a low complaint along the way, and returned to the police station by the way, and Jimmy was on standby at the police station in the middle of the night, and he was happy that there was no serious accident that required the police.
When it was time for the morning shift, Jimmy returned home to rest.
Due to his shifts, he worked night shifts throughout the week, sleeping during the day until the afternoon, and then went out to find something to eat. This kind of night shift makes it impossible to do anything during the day, which is equivalent to just sleeping and resting, and Jimmy does not arrange activities such as gun practice for himself.
In the evening, Jimmy returns to the police station again and begins the next day's night shift.
It's actually quite boring to be a night shift policeman, most of the field roads in the United States have no street lights, and the main ones with street lights are cities, towns and nearby roads. By the way, the intercontinental highway is also a large section without street lights.
For a novice patrol officer like Jimmy who needs to accumulate experience, the easiest small case to handle is to wait near the intersection, especially at midnight. If there is a commission for issuing a ticket, it is estimated that the patrol officers will come to the intersection at night to squat.
Squatting also has the advantage of being at the intersection convenient to set off quickly according to the notice of the dispatch center, and all directions are basically unblocked.
It's not yet 9 o'clock in the evening, it's early, Jimmy turned on the police lights, didn't turn on the siren, just to remind the drivers on the road, there are police here, be careful when driving. If the driver can't see the police lights, deliberately runs a red light or other violations, don't blame yourself for being ruthless.
If the police are in a bad mood and the aunt is coming, then even if you are unlucky and can't catch a traffic violation, you can stop and say that your window film transmittance is not enough, and you will be unlucky to test it.
Jimmy squatted at the intersection for more than an hour, only issued a ticket, the motorcycle ran a red light and turned left, and the rest was basically a minor problem, and after a verbal warning, he let the person go.
By the way, in 2000, police cars have not yet popularized dash cams, police do not have a portable police law enforcement recorder, mobile phones do not have a video function, if it is not bad luck to be photographed by the public monitoring system, basically can only rely on cameras + video recorders to record illegal information. Jimmy has a camera in his kit, but it's for crime scene recording, not for capturing offending vehicles on the road. He also doesn't have a radar speedometer, so he basically relies purely on his eyes to identify whether he needs to drive a police car to stop.
The parking time is relatively long, Jimmy drove into a two-way two-lane road to drive, pressing the speed of 35mph, and all those who overtook from the rear were speeding, so that the judgment was more accurate and worry-free.
A car came from the opposite lane, the speed was very fast, and when the intersection passed, Jimmy turned on his police lights and siren, turned around and began to chase after him.
The car in front of him accelerated directly after seeing the police lights, Jimmy could only speed up and follow behind, the dark road surface, only the place where the lights shined can be seen clearly, and the car in front only left him with a taillight.
Jimmy is not enough driving experience, and he does not dare to directly lift the 150mph top speed to chase in such an environment, after chasing for a few minutes, he can only turn off the siren and give up, and he can't even see the taillights, not far in front of him is a small town, there are many intersections, as long as the car in front turns a corner and then turns off the lights, he can't find him, and he didn't notice the license plate and model when he crossed up before.
Today's first failed stop just appeared, the key is that there is no chance of PIT, can't catch up, Jimmy is a little angry.
Jimmy drove forward slowly, wasting gasoline aimlessly, the gasoline of the police car is reimbursed by the police station, whether it is a car chase or a slow patrol, the consumption of gasoline Jimmy is not distressed at all, just pay attention to how much gas is left in the tank, and make sure that he can return to the police station normally.
The daily patrols of the county police are basically on the roads between the cities, and there are very few times to enter the cities, because most cities have their own police stations.
The radio in the dispatch center often sounded, but most of it was in the area of other people's responsibility, and Jimmy's side was relatively calm, and there were no vicious incidents, so he could only squat on the side of the road and squat a few unlucky eggs to vent his anger.
"Adam100, Adam7, Adam28, Adam47, gunfight, Ady town police station for backup, switch to channel 8 when you arrive."
"Adam28 ROVE." Jimmy turns on the lights and sirens and runs over.
The notice just now made Jimmy have a sense of foreboding, generally speaking, to support the town police station, there are about 1-2 people, this time directly notified 4 police cars, and an A100, this represents Director James, indicating that the local case is no longer a simple local security incident, and may involve cross-city or even cross-county cases.
Again, the head of the county police department, that is, the county sheriff, is elected locally, and there is only one in each county, and is responsible for all public security incidents in the county except for the various city police stations and town police stations, as well as the security of prisons, courts, government and other departments within the county.
Typically, county sheriffs are not involved in specific cases, but are primarily responsible for personnel management, communication and coordination with county councils and other agencies, assistance with state and federal requests, and so on.
Today, it should be very rare to notify the county sheriff directly on the radio.
Although Jimmy is a novice police officer, Noah has taught him the key points of attention from the dispatch center and radio station before, and he still knows this.
Arriving at Adi Town, Jimmy found that he was the first to arrive, switched to channel 8, and Jimmy directly pressed the speak button, "Jimmy, the county police officer, I have arrived at the intersection south of the town, please indicate the destination." ”
"I'm Sheriff Sam, you get to the north of town from Middle Boulevard, there's a factory on the left side of the road, I'm waiting for you at the door."
"Roger."
Jimmy arrives in a car and stops the siren, the lights still flashing.
A middle-aged man on the side of the road wearing a police uniform and a police badge of Sheriff is the local sheriff Sam.
"You're the first to arrive, when will sheriff James be there?"
"I don't know, I'm patrolling the neighborhood, so hurry up. What's going on inside? ”
"There are 4 suspects inside, the person who held us hostage, the name is Gina, all 4 suspects are in possession of pistols, and no automatic weapons have been found so far. They came here after the trouble at the Green Parrot Bar, but there were only 3 of us and we couldn't handle it. ”
"Why do you need our sheriff here? If it's just 4 people, as long as the police support you. ”
"There's a person I know inside, it's a former county police officer, Superintendent Reina."
