It's generally so the Police have time to question them and have them make a statement. However, witnesses are under no obligation to provide testimony or canter to the police. The only exception to this is if they witnessed a felony crime being committed.

Why are witnesses detailed at the police station instead of at the crime scene?

Witnesses are often interviewed at the police station to provide a controlled environment for accurate and focused statements. This helps eliminate distractions present at the crime scene that could affect the quality or consistency of the information provided.
