Central police station is not as grand as it sounds, in fact it's been sold and is in the process of being closed down.Hercule Parrot wrote:I agree. But the other visitors only felt unsafe because the Police staff abandoned the reception and hid in the back office. It was a pathetic display of cowardice, especially as they left members of the public exposed to the situation.Bones wrote:The part for me is that there are people there possibly to report real crimes and they are leaving the Police Station without reporting the crime because these idiots come in shouting and jumping around and they feel intimidated.Hercule Parrot wrote:This video is ridiculous. A handful of halfwits decide to hand back a police radio dropped near their protest. Police staff flee the armoured glass reception area and hide in the back while the pig/cop guy and Mickey Summers strut around vaingloriously. Pathetic, all of them. http://bambuser.com/v/5829866
It does maintain a skeleton public desk staff, mainly because of it's central location, but in my experience it's contracted out staff, who for some reason or other are instructed to abandon the desk area if someone even becomes a little belligerent.
They're only really there to advise you on what to do, or who to contact, except in emergencies when they'll try and find a PC in the back, or if they can't find one then phone Bridewell and ask them to send one up.
It used to be the main station in the city (with connecting tunnels to the courts), but it's a winding down shambles now, that'll probably be as much use, in terms of PC work, when it's finally closed.
