#Atlanta get your social workers on speed dial.
Atlanta PD playing word games. “Walk out” vs “didn’t show up for shift” has the same result
ATL Mayor @KeishaBottoms on @wsbradio confirmed PD reached out to “surrounding” depts in case backup is needed
You don’t do that unless you’ve got a serious lack of officers! https://t.co/69ULw32cBR— SETH WEATHERS (@sethweathers) June 18, 2020
Earlier suggestions that multiple officers from each zone had walked off the job were inaccurate. The department is experiencing a higher than usual number of call outs with the incoming shift. We have enough resources to maintain operations & remain able to respond to incidents.— Atlanta Police Department (@Atlanta_Police) June 18, 2020
