Can you sue a city police dept for not protecting you after you were robbed?

No, at least not in the United States. There are several cases related to this issue, but the one that first comes to mind is DeShaney v. Winnebago County (489 U.S. 189), a 1989 decision. The government has no special duty to protect an individual from harm if the government didn't create the harm. If this weren't true, then every crime victim could sue the police for failing to protect them from criminals.
