From MercuryNews.com today:
Fremont’s alarming decision
“Burglars may arrive at your home, but the Fremont police may not.
In a first for the state, California’s 14th largest city is set to adopt a policy of not responding to residential or commercial burglary alarms unless they’re first verified as legitimate -- because about 98.5 percent aren’t.
It just costs too much money and time for a department already beset with cuts -- for example, Fremont cops no longer investigate car burglaries or even car thefts. And the department has axed all crime prevention programs.”
