Coppers never even cared enough to call me for a follow up, or to even take/bag it as evidence...
Too much work for a state employee? I honestly don't know. It's prolly low on the priority list for some good old fashion police work. especially since no one got seriously hurt/killed.

Kinda reminds me of when my DEF tank got contaminated while sitting at the dealership for a month. Felony vandalism (6,000 worth of emissions equipment ruined), but when I ask for the police to come out to make a police report... crickets...
Yeah, that really sucks. I know way, way too many people with similar stories. They suffer real loss, there is an easily identifiable (and apprehended) suspect, and our police simply cannot be arsed to even look into it. Doesn't make the jurisdiction any money. It's far more profitable to have our finest sitting on their dead asses with RADAR guns, filling the coffers. And they wonder why good, hard working tax paying citizens have so little respect for them anymore.
