If a police officer sees a crime but he is not assigned to that unit do they still have to go?
DeputyAndreana
Police officers have considerable discretion in the way they respond to calls for service and observed incidents that might warrant intervention or an enforcement action. The basis for these decisions involve many factors, but priority is a major issue. If an officer has been dispatched to a robbery in progress, and while en route he observes someone drive through a stop sign-controlled intersection without stopping, he is probably going to continue to the robbery, as that is a more crucial matter. On the other hand, if the officer is responding to a "cold" report of a burglary that occurred many hours or days before, he might decide to make the traffic stop first, then continue to the report call. The situation with the crime report is not going to change in the 5-10 minutes it will take to complete the traffic stop.
