We've had vandals and then to a car we need to make a police report.
Can you hang on one more?
Yes.
Thank you.
Law enforcement center, can you hold?
Yes ma'am.
We're not sending any officers for that type of call right now because of the flood emergency.
Oh, so what do we do for insurance purposes and all that?
We just call back.
I can't tell you when to call back, but once the flood subsides and then we'll explain
it to the insurance company, but we have officers tied up doing flood evacuations
and traffic and stuff.
Have you had any other calls like this?
No.
To me, like vandalism, I don't know.
The side window was bashed in on it.
Okay.
It's all in it all.
There's no window left.
It's in your vehicle?
Yes.
Okay.
Like I said, right now we can't do anything about it because we have our officers are
all, like I said, doing this flood-fighting thing and evacuating this thing, but if you
just give us a call back when it subsides here and we'll send an officer.
And tomorrow I'll call you better.
Okay.
Same thing.
Yep.
