Are the police that respond to 911 calls usually patrolling before they are called to a scene, or do they sometimes leave from the police station like firefighters do?

I'm assuming that smaller departments might do the second one more often?

Asked by Roger about 12 years ago

Officers respond from whereever they are at the moment. They might be eating lunch, driving down the street or submitting evidence at the department. They do not sit around at the PD like the firefighters do.
