<p>It is also possible that, in a high crime area, or with someone who has a personal history of being a crime victim, the person may be “trigger happy” about calling the police, resulting in more false alarms, which may be annoying for both the officers and any others who were the “suspicious persons” in the false alarms (and a mistake by either party in such an interaction could have serious consequences).</p>

<p>Police non-response to completed property crimes (where the chance of arresting a suspect for any individual crime is very low) may be due to police being used to capacity on other more serious crimes, or crimes in progress where the chance of arresting a suspect is higher. Perhaps the police department is understaffed relative to the level of crime in the area?</p>
