You don’t know unless you check though. I got the impression that it was too much trouble.
Considering all that is happening (crime wise) in our neighborhoods, mayhap this was something less than topmost on their radar? I know how must have felt, and rightly so, that it was topmost on your radar, however, priorities must be adhered to. Did you push the local police in this matter? Sometimes the police have to be pushed to get their attention.
Unfortunately, I worked in a large metropolitan police department so I have trouble relating to local, small town municipality departments and their priorities.
