Yes I have seen crime and reported it, whenever there is someone trespassing on our lot we call the police, but 4 out of 5 times they never come, even though there are signs posted. The police need to come when called!

I have reported crimes I've witnessed. But once, sadly, I called 911 while having a drunken man banging on my door after I already called and reported his breaking and entering next door a few minutes before. I got yelled at by the officer who answered the call, telling me "I said we'd be right there" and then he hung up on me! Good thing the drunk beligerant man didn't make it into the house while I was hung up on when calling for emergency help. They finally showed up and handled the situation but it was scary waiting for them knowing there was only 2 inches and a lock between myself and my 4 young kids with no one on the other end of the phone trying to help.
