I was doing a patrol last week and we saw someone in a tactical vest in a sprinter van. Went up to check it out.
Man rolls down the window and is wearing an “HCSO” hat. So I knew it was them. He goes to me “do your eyes not fucking work?”

There was an abduction in front of my apartment this morning. Afterwards, a Hennepin County Sheriff car drove by. Around 10-15 of us screamed at them for help, seeking assistance with the abandoned, window-smashed car. Some ran after them. They continued driving. 😑
