    Don't expect Durham Police Department to help with cybercrimes. Wouldn't even call a bank in NY and follow up on a scam.

    Recently had to call RPD for the first time. I have for years thought they were the ELITE of the…read moreWake County area but after this call I lost respect. #1 - I am the one who called 911 for service. They did not even come to my home first bc they were flagged down by the group of people I was calling to complain on. (They had no idea who my complaint was about and yet instead of coming to the address of the person who called in reference to threats of being shot they go to a different place. 2) None of the officers I spoke to had a care in the world. My wife noticed it, my kids ages 19,17 noticed it. I have been a homeowner where I live for over a decade and we have these renters that come in every 6-18 month to these 2 homes at the end of our street. Every single person that has lived in these houses have been a nuisance. Two gentleman came to my home and literally stated they were going to kill my kids and wife and RPD did absolutely nothing. I reported a vehicle sitting in the roadway with no tags and RPD did nothing. They literally watch this person go in the house, get a tag from another car and put it on the vehicle. 2 hours later I drove by and that tag had also been changed over to a dealer tag. ( I spoke to a sergeant about this and his response was "well if we ticket them now it may escalate the situation) They wrote no tickets, even though the vehicle was also parked within 20 ft of a stop sign nothing was done. (It has been sitting in the same spot since and nothing has been done) I will never again call RPD if the two officers I dealt with are what they are training. I went through BLET in 2000 when popat first started. My vehicles say retired on my tags and everything. I don't expect special treatment but Maybe a tad more respect or professional courtesy since I have been in those shoes before, kind of like respecting your elders. Don't talk down to me as if I am stupid because I am not currently working. I have already been there and done that and may know a little more than you do. One would think these younger officers would like to learn but it seems they just want to clear the call as quickly as possible. There are always cars parked blocking the intersection, illegally parked, if a fire truck were to need to get down to my house they couldn't even get here because of ppl parking along side the road. RPD never patrols the neighborhood, and when you call them they make you feel dumb like you have no clue what you are talking about. Also the new standard of police work is they ask you for video recording so I guess you are supposed to go around recording your whole life every single day. As a retired officer I used to be proud to say I live in the City of Oaks where RPD protects us but now I see RPD is really going downhill and doesn't give a damn about community policing. They just want to clear calls as quickly as possible.

    They barely do their job, it may as well be the purge in NC, someone broke in my truck at Embassy…read moresuite, well lit parking lot with cameras, the way I feel like someone that works there did it, I had to tell the cop come during the day to request access to there cameras but I doubt they did ... all I'm asking is for them to do a proper investigation... don't act nonchalant about

    This is the most atrocious and disgusting situation I have ever witnessed involving the Wake County…read moreSheriff's Office. The conduct displayed here is not only unprofessional but a complete violation of civil rights and basic human decency. An officer arrived at a home in a quiet neighborhood and, when nobody answered, simply let himself in. There was no emergency, no warrant, and no permission. Minutes later, he shot and killed the family's beloved Belgian Malinois, Zelda. The homeowners were not there--the husband was at work, the wife was out of town, and the four children were at school. Zelda was simply doing her job: protecting her home from an intruder. Instead of immediately contacting the family to inform them of this tragedy, the officer called for backup. An "army" of police arrived and proceeded to circle the wagons. For 40 minutes, they searched the family's home, garage, and backyard--again, without a warrant, without permission, and without notifying the homeowners. To date, there seems to be no accountability. No apology, no compensation for the trauma inflicted, and no prosecution for the officer who unlawfully entered a private residence and killed a family member. This department needs to be held accountable for this gross overreach and the heartbreaking loss of Zelda. Citizens should feel safe in their homes, not terrified of the people hired to protect them.

    This State Highway Patrol listing already existed on Yelp (I didn't create it). I'm not sure how it…read morecame to be because there are numerous North Carolina State Highway Patrol Troop Offices across the state and not all of them are on Yelp: https://www.ncdps.gov/our-organization/law-enforcement/state-highway-patrol/troop-offices. The address on this listing, at 1831 Blue Ridge Road in Raleigh, is for Troop C. In North Carolina, there are nine troops with the letter designations A through I. Each troop is based in a different city and has jurisdiction in a different set of counties. Troop C covers the Triangle. I often make the drive from Chapel Hill to High Point to Charlotte and on into South Carolina and Georgia, and back. The drive takes place on I-40 and I-85 and spans, I believe, four troop jurisdictions: C, D, E, and H. I haven't seen too much activity from Troop C over the past ~2.5 years. I think the most activity I consistently see is from Troop E on I-85 in Davidson County, near Lexington. That part of the interstate is easy to speed on because of the numerous lanes and low volume of traffic. It's also a great place for the State Highway Patrol to set up speed traps. I see the traps regularly. People also love to speed between Durham and Greensboro, which I believe is mostly Troop D territory. I'm a little surprised I haven't seen more people pulled over on that merged stretch of I-40 and I-85. It's relatively dangerous because of the higher volume of traffic between the Triangle and the Triad. State Highway Patrol is a Law Enforcement division of the North Carolina Department of Public Safety. Thank you to the State Highway Patrol for keeping us safe on the highway.
