Ride along with EPD.

[Bunnykid68]

Had one that needed it for a class and he looked at a car magazine all night. Titanium was actually refreshing. He appeared to be interested in everthing that was going on and asked the right questions. He also didn't miss a whole lot. The big thing was that he didn't spaz out when I turned on the lights and siren.

Of course he didn't spaz out when you hit the lights. He wanted to do that for ya, so he is probably just depressed that he didn't get too and thats why he hasn't added anymore to his report.

When you ride a long can you carry a weapon?

Its been discussed in this thread and the others before but generally NO.

It is best if you ask your particular department what their regulations are.

I bet Lonnie has all his reports done from that night.

Thanks Titanium_Frost, I must have missed that. For liability reasons I can see why.

Ok, so I drive out to meet Officer Rahm at the East Side sector in Evansville at 5pm. He tells me where to park and greets me. We then go over some things in the car. Lonnie shows me his computer and how it works, interesting tid bit: in Evansville when the EPD runs your plates or license and you received your LTCH in the city then it will show up at the top of the screen. I wish it didn't seem like it was a warning and it was more of a "Hey this citizen is responsible and one of the good guys."

If I can explain, a little. Our system allows officers and records to place "alerts" (not really good or bad alerts) on people. When a car is stopped or a person is came into contact with it will notify other things also like resisted LEOs, arrests made from that car, EDP (emotionaly disturbed person), on parole. It will also show how many times that car has been stopped and the disposition on each stop.

Nobody ever wanted to believe me when I told them this

It was to an accident with injuries on the Lloyd Expressway. It was a pretty bad scene but only one person needed to go to the hospital and they didn't seem that serious.

Again sorry I didn't realize right away it was you, But as you said I was kind of busy

Next time we are at an accident together, let me know.

So, if you don't mind clarifying..
Are you saying that the LTCH doesn't automatically show up when you run the subject's info, but rather, shows up only if another LEO has added it as an "alert"?

I believe he is saying that in Evansville, if you applied for your LTCH through their department, they note it in THEIR system. He didn't say anything about another LEO adding it as an "alert". So if you applied for yours in Eville, then yes, it will show up automatically.

No, it shows up automatically. Officers can place their own alerts on people and places. It even show up if we go to a place and there is a person who lives there, frequents there or has lived there if they have a warrant on them. But it shows up up automatically if they have an LTCH on them. This is some of the features that we pay for in our operating system. It only shows up on in-county people.

Gotcha. Thanks for clearing that up

 

[lrahm]

No problem. I know that it seems bad on the outside but, if I walk up to a car and all of a sudden there is a person with a gun how am I going to react or how would you react in my position.

 

[rmabrey]

Will do, I dont even remember if I realized you were there or not. Ill pay attention from now on to whos working the scene.

"Hi fellow Citizen, good to see you are exercising your Right to Bear Arms on this fine day, may I see your LTCH?"
