Police Have ‘Given Up’ Investigating Some Crimes says Report
A police watchdog has found that some forces in England and Wales have “almost given up” investigating certain crimes such as thefts from vehicles, and criminal damage.
A report by Her Majesty’s Inspectorate of Constabulary found there was a postcode lottery in the way different forces dealt with the same crimes and revealed some victims were being encouraged to investigate incidents themselves.
