ONLY two urgent response police cars patrol some Sydney suburbs, leaving the community unprotected. There has also been a blowout in response times, with officers now taking 12.4 minutes - almost two minutes longer than five years ago - to respond to triple-0 calls. Non-urgent response times have increased by 21 minutes, with crime victims waiting an average of one hour and 14 minutes for police. Figures obtained under Freedom of Information showed some areas of Sydney, including Burwood, Cabramatta, North Sydney, Miranda and Waverley, had just two cars on first-response duty during the day.
