The property crime you reported is inactive and has not been assigned to a detective. .........leaving a bunch of crap out............

..........Prompt action enhanced by citizen-police cooperation is an essential element of successfully prosecuting offenders and recovering stolen property. We thank you for your assistance. PLEASE DO NOT CALL UNLESS YOU HAVE SUSPECT INFORMATION."


This is taken verbatim from the little card. Even the capitalization of the last part. Now I know that my petty little crime isn't worth a lot of time and energy with all that is happening in the world but...
I bet if it was their golf equipment they would have found time to do something.......like in DC they have been arguing crime rate is low..(its not) and their time is better served ticketing and fining commuters rather than deal with crime....well the Chief of police had his car stolen over the weekend....

there are a lot of people who had their cars stolen with no consideration given by the police laughing right now.
